I got a 198 like you Bart, how did you find out that you got your score changed (I read that article on the writing quesiton).

I got it through school today. I heard that everyone who's scores are to be changed will get them by the end of this week, at least thats the plan.

i got a 214 on the psat and i am commended, but i live in a pretty competitive state (Connecticut) as far as the PSAT goes, so depending on where you live a 200 could very well qualify you to be commended.

I don't know if that will bump you into a top percentile, because many others will also be bumped as well...

Doesn't it say at the bottom of the score change sheet?

By Curiousone (Curiousone) on Tuesday, May 13, 2003 - 04:23 pm: Edit

commended status is determined nationally
only semifinalist status is determined by state

Generally people AROUND 200...it varies year to year...I would say plus or minus 3 or 4 points...get Commended Status.
