[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Blair magnet program had 47 NMSF 2022. .... on track with the 40 to 50 percent of class (n=100) for the last 20 years.  Similar to RMontgomery IB program in Montgomery county[/quote]

It must be amazing to be in a school where 40-50% of kids are at this level.  Really puts things in perspective.[/quote]

My kid goes to PHS.   Poolesville HS has 37 NMSF. Most of the top performers at PHS did not register for the alternate route to NMS. No PSAT was held at the school.  But for a tiny school -  PHS did pretty ok. It seems that there is no buzz in the school regarding NMS, and there are several students with 1600 gadding about oblivious to it.  Nonetheless, PHS is also an extremely laid back and  low pressure school, so that comes with the territory.

But, to the point that was made be pp above, to be in a school where most kids are at this level is amazing. Most of these high performing kids think that they are average and that's what makes it an amazing school.  [/quote]
