[quote=Anonymous]These are not academic merit scholarships! This year, in one of the most prestigious HS magnet program in MCPS, the 2 kids that got the BK scholarship are at the bottom of the class. Kids with much better stats and international awards like gold olympiad medals were not selected. It is ok to use these scholarships to attract some kids, but UMD needs to define what the merit means to avoid creating false expectations that academic merit is the intend. That's in the spirit of honesty and transparency that any education institution should be operating on. [/quote]
