[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Vegas-style gambling with children's futures. WAY TO GO, MCPS! What's next - raffle tickets for Valedictorian?[/quote] Will you stop. The criteria-based magnets--Blair, RMIB etc.--are not lotteries.[/quote] True, but can they fairly differentiate between many of the applicants?[/quote] Yes, MAP scores can be a significant discriminator, for example if you're testing 3+ years ahead vs. 1-2 years ahead. People claim straight As are extremely common, but they're not as common as some on these threads claim. And the essays are taken seriously.[/quote]
