[quote=Anonymous]Just wondering what the experience and general wisdom is around this issue. Is it better for a high performing student to go to a magnet or highly regarded HS, or to go to a HS in the east part of the county that has a lot fewer high performing kids? Does College Park admit a certain percentage from each HS, and therefore a standout student in an otherwise lower performing school would have a better chance of getting in to UMCP? How about other schools like SLACs and even high profile top colleges? I'm just wondering if an application from, say, Wheaton HS would get more attention than an equivalent application from BCC, a W school or one of the magnets. [/quote]
