[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How big is the high school? As long as there are decent AP classes (e.g. calc and physics) I wouldn't worry about it. Check the AP courses, looking for 5+ that your kid would potentially take. Look at the math track.[/quote]  It is more than calc and physics.  You need BC Calc, not just AB and you need Physics C- the other ones are more of a honors HS physics class.  This is to not be under prepared if you are going up against students who have those classes to take.

University towns are usually much better academically and you can usually tell which ES is the one where the professor kids are.  Look a the HS classes that are offered.  Talk with some of the people there who have students in the HS to get a sense of how many kids will be in the cohort.  Do they rely more on the county CC for kids to take higher level classes in HS?

This is just public school thinking right here.  For, let me guess, CS?  You don’t “need” these things at all for a top school if your game plan isn’t STEM and you’re not coming from MCPS or FCPS. Ask me how we know.

OP you’re trolling.  Surprised nobody has called you out yet.  Someone as panicky as your troll persona is about distant college admissions isn’t settling for an academic position at Boise State.  Also? It’s a complete tell that you mention no other factors in your first post. Such as, the ages of your “kids” and their current school situation and whether your “family” wants to move.

An actual parent would have described these types of things. A college confidential troll would try to stir sh!t with a post 100% focused on admissions odds[/quote]
