[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] MCAP is not relevant. If your child has all As and scores above the 99th percentile in 7th grade spring and 8th grade fall MAPs they might have a shot. Also need to be taking geometry in 8th for stem magnets and aids some enthusiasm for learning and proven interest in the subject in the day and prompts.[/quote] I don't think geometry is a requirement. Blair has magnet geometry as an option, but I would imagine there aren't many kids in that boat. [/quote] +1. About 1/4 of the magnet kids take geometry in 9th.[/quote] That’s not even a tiny bit true at Blair. [/quote] DD graduated 3 years ago and it was the exactly the case for her year. 1 class of magnet geometry, 2 classes of precalc and 1 class of functions. Some kids who took geometry repeated it after struggling in precalc as well. Maybe it has changed...[/quote] I will add that I have no idea hwo many kids were in each class. Maybe the Geo class was smaller.[/quote]
