That makes no sense though; it’s the National Merit Scholarship.
No, it’s because they compare it to the States in order to qualify for National. In New York, it’s something ridiculous like 220, but in other states where the education system isn’t as competitive (less kids), the cut off is lower, maybe 208. Despite the name, there are different cut offs depending on States. :p
