[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Rankings based on mean scores aren’t helpful in terms of gauging opportunity or quality. It mostly reflects socio-economic standing, and intended to justify real-estate values. The college admissions data above seems more on point since it’s about real people and outcomes.[/quote] But the college admissions data doesn't account for legacy/donor status. The whole picture basically reflects race/ethnicity and SES. When MoCo people say they moved from east county to west so their kids could attend the "best" schools, they really mean rich schools with a lot of whites and Asians. [/quote]
