[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Admission to these magnets is a pie-eating contest where the prize is more pie.

Prep for years for a single standardized test? Congrats! Now you get four years of excessive homework, no balance, and an anxiety disorder. Yay![/quote]
easy answer:  don't have your kid apply if that's how you feel.

True, and my kid didn’t. But I do think the buyer should beware in this case. [/quote]
The return policy is quite generous.

There are kids who do great in magnets, and others who really struggle.

My kid is doing great.  Gets plenty of sleep (I make sure DC is  offline by 10:30pm); has several activities going on including working PT; has a great social life (DH and I were just commenting on how we've had so many dinners alone on the weekends these past few weeks); pulling straight As.

DC has really blossomed in magnet; I've never seen DC happier.  DC was super miserable in MS when we opted to not do magnet for MS due to commute issues.

So not everyone is miserable, has anxiety or no balance in magnets.[/quote]
