[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like Richard Montgomery did better than the other schools in terms of admission to top schools (e.g. Harvard, Princeton, Stanford, Duke, etc.).  Wootton did terribly.  Anyone know why this is?  [/quote]

Because colleges discriminate against white and asians, which is a high percentage of Wootton.

IB and Magnet programs will get into great schools.  So will schools that have diversity, hence BCC better than Whitman.

Every college has a numbers game it needs to fill based on sex, color, where you live in the county, etc....   We have friends that moved to North Dakota the last two years during Covid. Definitely helped with college admissions being a minority (not black) in a state full of whites that barely apply to colleges out of the area.  It was win during Covid but I can't imagine doing that now.  It's crazy playing the college game.  Just go to JUCO for 2 years, get A's, and get into any college you want.

🙄 RM is 24% Asian.[/quote]

Actually JW MS has 14% Asians - only school that feeds into RM.  So you can see how many asians are actually in the IB program to bring the entire student body up to 24%

Meanwhile Robert Frost MS has 42% Asians and Wootton has 36% Asians.  So clearly the top Asian performers left for magnets.
