[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is one rando "recalling" 10 years ago and tossing numbers off the top of his head. It's meaningless gossip, not actual statistics. It's also extremely school correlated. While rare overall, it clusters at certain high schools like TJ. As the article explains, students are competing primarily against their peers of the same school. So "not moving the needle by itself" means that it isn't a shocking Michael Jordan auto-admit outlier, like it was 25 years ago (when there were also fewer low end classes with the AP label). Meanwhile, kids without 8+ APs, not at magnet schools, are still getting admitted. Overall, unenlightening article. [/quote] Agreed. [/quote]
