[quote=Anonymous]The only way to get close to magnet is to hound your guidance counselor to skip dead weight prereqs. Blair science magnet kids skip: 1 semester of chemistry 1 semester of physics 1 semester of algebra 2 / precalculus. 1 semester of AP stats 1 year of CS (Principles) (They also take an semester of Earth space science most honors students don't bother taking because they don't have room). and cover more material in those abbreviated/accelerated courses. And have an extra period for a set of 4 years of classes which are mostly used for engineering/research/stats/CS. They also don't waste time on double period AP science, instead doing a bag of 1 semester electives, where 2 or 3 semester courses add up the loose equivalent of a regular school's double period full-year AP science.
