[quote=Anonymous]At every level, Fairfax is outperforming Montgomery, and AP is creaming IB. Fairfax has the top high school in the country in TJ, and TJ has roughly twice as many semifinalists as the two schools in Maryland with the most semifinalists combined. Fairfax also has 237 NMSF compared to only 138 in Montgomery. And, Fairfax has a much higher percentage of high schools with at least one semifinalist: 76% as compared to only 58% in Montgomery. At the same time, most of the semifinalists are enrolled in AP schools, not IB schools. In Fairfax, over 97% of the semifinalists attend AP schools. In Montgomery, over 65% do. Given that evidence, the possibility that the percentage of students in the small, selective magnet IB program at RM who are semifinalists may be a couple percentage points higher than the percentage of students at TJ, which educates a larger and deeper pool of talented students, who are semifinalists is at most a minor side-note to this discussion.
