[quote=Anonymous]Look at the overall distribution not which schools are on top, including TJ they are pretty similar. TJ just skims the top (at least in STEM) from primarily FCPS schools. If there's any remaining differences it's likely because VA has UVA, W&M and VT (for engineering) as really attractive public in-state options whereas UM-CP while a great school is a bit close for many MCPS kids. Any possibly that there's a bit more of the "old money" types in some areas of MCPS that have ivy legacy than in FCPS. Just my hunches though. In my kid's school there was a kid who won a major national award, tons of other awards, was a NMF, top grades including taking beyond AP Calc etc. and he didn't apply to any Ivy's and is going to UVA.[/quote]
