[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]State school choices are a big factor for us in determining whether we should buy in MoCo or FFX. Kids are in elementary now so we have no idea what kind of grades, SATs etc. they'll bring to bear come admission time. Finances for us limit choices in state (unless one or more kids gets an amazing scholarship out of state or private). But, we can't plan for that, so those who have either attended, or have kids attending MD or VA state schools, which system would you recommend? I'm leaning toward VA because there seem to be more options for higher-ranked/quality schools (UVA, W&M, V Tech) but also realize it is extremely difficult to gain acceptance from NoVA. I think UMD College Park would also be fine but know nothing about other MD state schools (and UMD wouldn't be a shoo-in either, from what I read). We have four kids so their interests/talents could be just about anything. Any thoughts?[/quote]

That is why we are in Virginia.  However, it turns out my DC wants to major inPhysics and UMD-CP beats anything in VA for that. So, You cannot plan for everything. [/quote]
