[quote=Anonymous]For students that have been in MCPS since early elementary (2nd grade GT screening) they will have plenty of data to compare students against other students both within their home school cohort and against other applicants. But there are also plenty of kids who move into MCPS after 2nd grade or who didn't apply in 3rd or 5th grades for a magnet and don't have standards based scores. Those students will be harder to evaluate, and recent MAP and current grades will matter more. I suspect that for all of the programs, there is going to be several different ways to examine the data and that outliers can be found each way. For ES and MS, they can be a little more generous in identifying good candidates and just let the lottery narrow the lists down. HS is going to be tough for the committees, I think.[/quote]
