[quote=Anonymous]What the title says. If colleges take only X number of students per school, will there be an advantage by going to a magnet (interest based or criteria based) in an overall poorly performing high school? Lets say you are in the Wootton cluster and your kid wants to study CS in UMD- instead of going to Wootton's CS magnet programs which will be very competitive, would going to Rockville but doing the other non related courses in that magnet help - do colleges care about what your focus was in high school before admitting to that program?
