[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m very lost on this whole thing. My friend’s son in Wheaton area was able to apply to several schools. But we are in the Seneca Valley cluster. Does that mean our only options are SVHS, Poolesville magnets and Thomas Edison? As for Poolesville, I a have high achieving student who is in compacted math but was not selected for MS magnet. Humanities and Ecology would be of the most interest, but are you unlikely to get in if not already in magnet program? Also, my child is currently in 7th grade. When does this process for HS start?[/quote]

Your options are SVHS, Edison, Poolesville Magnets and Richard Montgomery magnet IB.  Apply to all. Why not?

Process starts at the beginning of 8th grade. My DD started to study for the exam during end of 7th grade, using Khan Academy and an SAT book.  Don't buy into the hype of test prep companies. They teach from commercially available books and have no clue about the actual exam.  Great grades in MAP, PARCC, and through out middle school is required.

There is no magic formula about who gets in where.
