[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP are you aware that there are kids out there with 99% MAP-M several grades up? Yes there are kids doing this with outside enrichment, but there are those truly bright kids that can do without. [/quote] Yes, I'm aware, and I really didn't mean for this to be about my individual child's chances. Perhaps I wrote my original post poorly. I was mostly curious about whether a highly capable, "truly bright" kid (not necessarily my kid) that attends a "regular" middle school that doesn't have math or science-oriented clubs or teams has a reasonable chance at admission and success, especially compared to students from schools that do provide those opportunities. It sounds like the answer is yes, and that's good. I've definitely spent too much time reading DCUM threads about things like math team competitions and robotics clubs at some schools, and I'm glad to get this reality check.[/quote]
