Semifinalists are chosen by their high scores on the 2011 Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualify Test (PSAT/NMSQT) and represent less than one percent of U.S. high school seniors.

These academically talented students will have the opportunity to continue in competition for Merit scholarship awards worth $32 million that will be offered next spring.
