[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Also HGC in MCPS is very selective (top 3 to 5%) in their admissions, whereas FFX AAP admits top 10 to 15%.[/quote] And many complain they are not really that accelerated since they include a broader range of kids (I have seen higher percentages than PP but can't confirm). [/quote] This is a complaint I hear a lot from friends in Fairfax. The difference between the top 5% of students and top 15% of students is really big and the curriculum is aimed more at the lower end of this group of students. To the OP - you are probably fine in either school system. I think MCPS does a better job educating the top 5%. Post high school options are better in VA.[/quote]
