Jeremy Wu, a senior at MACS, scored in the top 50k students who entered the 2024 National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test for the PSAT/NMSQT.
The National Merit Scholarship Program is an annual academic competition among high school students for recognition and college scholarships that began in 1955. The program is conducted by National Merit Scholarship Corporation (NMSC®), a not-for-profit organization that operates without government assistance. United States high school students enter the National Merit Scholarship Program by taking the Preliminary SAT/National Merit Scholarship Qualifying Test (PSAT/NMSQT®), which serves as an initial screen of over 1.3 million entrants each year, and by meeting published program entry and participation requirements.
In late September 2023, more than two-thirds of the 50,000 high scorers will be notified that they have qualified as Commended Students.
We congratulate Jeremy for this accomplishment and thank him for his outstanding example of what it is to be a MACS Scholar!
