[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some anecdotal true evidence: 3 separate kids out of bounds (two from different Ws, one from RM clusters) applied for aerospace program. All 3 were accepted... Only one from RM cluster went there. If you are interested and out of bound, you have very high probability to be accepted. [/quote] Sorry, but the anecdotal evidence is not helpful in this case. All in-bound students are accepted to one of the magnets (they "apply" by designating their first, second, and third choices). There is some room left over for out of bound students. They are most likely to go to students from higher income areas in the county. If you go to the information session they will explain how the "lottery" works. It is not a blind lottery, there are certain factors - such as SES that are taken into account when accepting out-of-bound students. SES is determined by your homeschool demographics, not by your individual family income.[/quote]
