[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If the kids are really under a great deal of pressure, and the academics truly are first-rate, as pps claim, why average SAT scores lower than Johns Hopkins summer CTY requires of 7th graders and only a handful of white kids? What's missing from this picture? I've perused the whole thread and still don't understand. [/quote] I really think that it's because Banneker is an application only school, but not a test in school. Kids come with great GPAs, an essay and teacher recommendations. That is very different than what is expected on the SAT. Kids come from NW, SE, SW and NE. They come with different skill levels, but work really hard. A lot of the SAT is about exposure.[/quote]
