[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many kids in the DMV typically score in the 98-99% on the HSPT?   I know this puts them in the top 1-2% in the U.S., but how does that translate here.

What percentage of kids in this area that took the HSPT scored that high?  Is there anywhere to find this data?  Thanks[/quote]

Well just go to the honors brunch at SJC and you will be in a room (more like auditorium) filled with kids who scored the same. [/quote]

Yes--I know this area is different.  Too many smart damn kids.[/quote]

Or is this a myth?  I also heard the same thing about the number of kids that get straight As every quarter in MS.  When I asked the Principal, the numbers were actually quite low.  But, talk to any parent and their kid was a straight A student.

High HSPT scores do not translate to straight As every quarter. Not all "smart kids" are motivated to do the work necessary for straights As. While we're used to what my tween would call "try hards," it's not always the case. [/quote]
