[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Ok, but then why do more large public MCPS make the list than large FCPS schools?  That was my question. [/quote]

Because of U.Va.  Big percent of the class at TJ goes to U.Va.  Md. doesn't have an equivalent.[/quote]
[b]Wrong, about 40% Blair magnet students go to UMD,  which is actually a STEM powerhouse while UVA is not.
One has to wonder why go to all the troubles of going to TJ just to end up at UVA[/b].[/quote]

:D  Really?  U.Va ranked #28
                   U.Md ranked #64 
                   That's a big difference.[/quote]
Wow!!!
I guess reading comprehension is not your forte.
Key word :STEM 
Do you know what is that?[/quote]

Well, I mean if you REALLY want the info:

https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/virginia-tech-3754/overall-rankings
https://www.usnews.com/best-graduate-schools/university-of-virginia-main-campus-234076/overall-rankings

MD is #25 in engineering for undergrad (STEM) Virginia Tech is #25.

Virginia Tech is considered the lower of the two schools by TJ grades, but you know. Since you want STEM equivalents.

You do know that STEM is not only Engineering, right? There is, for example, computer science.

You moved the goalposts from UVA to VT, which is unranked in graduate Engineering. [/quote]
