Best Answer

National Merit Scholar count can vary year by year; however, a large public school like Plano High School in Plano, TX can produce 50-60 semifinalists in a given year. While this is a large number on an absolute basis, if considering the number of semifinalists relative to the class population, exceptional private schools have the highest concentration.

Holy Trinity Episcopal Academy in Melbourne, Florida had the highest number of finalist in 2010 (8).
