So PSAT semifinalist results came in

[IAteYourMother]

Now, my goal is to be a finalist (need to turn in a form including transcript+SAT I+essay+extraneous info) and then money money money!!!

Good luck. I was a finalist and I don't recall getting much money.

I blew off my PSATs. I probably should have tried. Oh well, I got a good enough score on the SAT I.

If you're actually serious, I think I can tell why you didn't get in...

Congratulations. FYI, most of the scholarships you can get from being a national merit scholar are contingent upon naming a particular institution as your first choice (helps their statistics I guess). This means you have to choose which university to go to far in advance of everyone else. Good luck, and I suggest you weigh the availability of full scholarships heavily in your decision, but try to get as much info as you can to help you decide between the different fully funded offers. My graduating class had 21 national merit semifinalists. I'm not sure how many of the others in my class ended up being Merit Scholars, but it's something you can keep on your resume forever.

Congratulations!

I was named a NM Finalist, but that year our wonderful governor eliminated the financial rewards.

 

[deadlyapp]

I was a commended student =(

 

[badmouse]

Money? There was money involved? I didn't get any.

Congrats on being a good test taker. :beer:

I can hardly understand what you are saying, but regardless, what do you mean by no good schools? By Asian standards would that only include Harvard Princeton and Yale?
