Congratulations to Senior Jonathan Roth for joining the National Merit Scholarship Semi-Finalist list.
Last year, 1.3 million Juniors took the PSAT. Of those, 50,000 are named as a Commended Student by the National Merit Scholarship Program. Current Senior Annagail Warrener received this recognition. Only 16,000 (within the top 2%) are named National Merit Scholarship Semi-Finalists.
Next, Jonathan will try to make the Finalist round (top 15,000) and/or earn a scholarship (top 8,000). Best of luck, Jonathan!
