[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not exactly “personalities” but there are some very obvious demographic differences between CAP (largely upper middle class, white students) and magnet (many from Indian, Chinese, Korean and other Asian backgrounds often children of immigrants including the few who are white) at Blair. Nice kids either way. [/quote] Why is this? Why are there so few wealthy white families in SMCS relative to CAP, and why so many in CAP? Are the upper middle class white kids not as good in STEM or are their families less interested?[/quote] Reality is they apply and don't get in.[/quote] The statistics beg to differ. There were something like 250 white applicants and roughly 35 got in the other year. This was not much different than the average which was roughly 100 got in out of 800 applicants. [/quote] Seems to be a lot less than 35 this past year.[/quote]
