This is for MCPS 2025:

https://bethesdamagazine.com/2025/09/10/mcps-students-college/

My FCPS school has a list of the top 20 schools applied to in Naviance. Don’t go by Bethesda Magazine or worse, Instagram posts.

Why would Bethesda Magazine list FCPS matriculations?

It doesn't. I think Arlington Mag may have. I remember an issue that ranked the most popular schools at least. But I think it's all limited by self reporting.

St Andrews takes anybody from the USA who applies.

Not sure why DCUM has to hate on Stoxbridge admits.

Because ridiculous St Andrews parents - like St Andrews Dad - keep posting this nonsense phrase, which no one in Great Britain uses. I mentioned to my Cambridge kid and they fell over laughing.

Yes, we know. You keep posting this to defend your decision to send your kid there. That’s all you’ve got. One made-up term from a dated story from a lefty newspaper that will always side with a progressive institution against Oxbridge. Please don’t ever use this term in Britain. You will be laughed at.

I don't have a dog in this fight; my senior is going to a school in the USA. But I don't get posters like you. Seriously, why are you so invested in where a kid goes to college? We get it. You don't like St. Andrews. The PP you are replying to does. MOst of us DGAF and are sick of you.
