[quote=Anonymous]This conversation is kind of silly. Let your child choose based on their interests and that's it. Many top magnet kids still don't get into HYP Stanford. If you are at Blair, RM, or Poolesville, check out Naviance, and you'll see all the kids with perfect scores who are still not accepted. I am an alumni interviewer, and I am always astounded at how many talented, qualified kids don't get in to my alma mater. I usually find out later that they've all gone on to either honors colleges at state schools or other private universities. Your kids will all be OK. And for the record, many magnet kids do varsity sports. The swim, wrestling, cross country, field hockey, soccer teams have all had magnet/CAP captains. [/quote]
