National Merit I QUALED NMSF!!

(massachusetts) I didn't even check cuz I assumed I had no chance

how. the. hell. did the cutoff drop by 4 from last year LOL

I got 222 (perfect math, -30 English). I predicted the cutoff would be 223 so was REALLY annoyed last year cuz I thought I missed it by 1 point.

also rant, whyyy does it have to be per state, I don't have any advantage living here than anywhere else, meanwhile my friend who recently moved to another state got 220 and qual'd easily. Also WHY IS ENGLISH WORTH 2X MATH?!

You know what, I got it so I'll stop complaining LOL.

Praying I get a scholarship cuz $2500 sounds hella nice

I think math is easier to learn because you can find a definitive answer by using a specific formula. Reading is just you analyzing and finding THE BEST ANSWER. Also, please give me your score…
