[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For everyone concerned about missing out: my kid didn't get into either of the programs he applied to, and went to his local HS. He was disappointed.

Four years of HS later, he was accepted - early decision - to a top 10 school. Life goes on. Make of it what you can.

Hang in there![/quote]

Thanks - sounds great!  And congrats![/quote]
Thanks. Kid's quite excited.[/quote]

That's awesome. Magnets have lots of supports. [b]Making it to a top school outside of a magnet program is hard[/b]. Your kid did really well![/quote]

Actually not quite right... Whitman's Ivy League intakes are about parallel with RMIB's Ivy League intakes. And then there are the privates...[/quote]

+1 If you look at Bethesda magazine's yearly college acceptance lists you will see that many kids get into top schools outside the magnets. I'm sure if there was a list for upcounty, DCC, etc you would see similar data. [/quote]

Blair magnets are mature enough NOT to be obsessed with a college brand name.  I heard a 2020 Blair magnet who was admitted by Columbia/Penn/Caltech but went to UMD College Park.
