[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I know there will be a lot of negative comments, but the legacy at these Big 3 schools is insane and we have none, nada. My kid was fine at the school, but we are not terribly impressed. Outside of MCPS (which I know is insane too), where can your kid stand out? [/quote] Folks, MCPS =/= Maryland :roll: OP, if you just want to reduce the amount of competition with legacy admits, look at the surrounding counties - Frederick, Washington, Carroll, Harford, Queen Anne’s. All of them have some decent high schools, access to community colleges for dual enrollment, and enough density in the area for there to be access to activities. Will selective schools also be familiar with those high schools? Sure. But there just won’t be the concentration of legacies that there is close in to DC.[/quote]
