[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Those are numbers from Polaris list website. The farms rates are from the MCPS and FCPS websites. The inability to see facts and argue persuasive, the name calling, and the complete inability to see mockery is indicative of the educational level from MCPS and of your on doing. [/quote] Sigh! ! 79/[b]200 =[/b] 39.5% where? You picked a number out of your @$$ to fit your narrative. [/quote] If you read the post, it's because about 200 kids go to UVA- it's overall ranking is way higher than UMD. But here's the thing: your narrative has been rebutted against already and then you call us names. Show us how the numbers can't work, vs. saying we make it up. You still can't beat the US News rankings or create a rate without actual hard numbers. Nor have you at all argued against it. Saying that it's made up is not an argument-- it's a cop out.[/quote] But MD kids would be so much less likely to go to UVA because it is more expensive for them not because they could not get in...[/quote] Yeah, U.Va a great bargain in-state which may account for its appeal with TJ parents, while most smart Maryland kids probably want to go elsewhere than their state flagship.[/quote] The other thing about UVA: it's not the only school. UVA is #4 in US News Top Public schools, and William and Mary is #12. UMD is a respectable #24-- but it's definitely not #4. And yes, overall rankings matters in terms of colleges and high schools. We are in the top 10 for top public colleges, alongside UCLA, Berkeley, U Michigan, and Georgia Tech. Our STEM may not be the greatest, but if we can compete with those schools, it's definitely not shabby. https://www.usnews.com/best-colleges/rankings/national-universities/top-public But let's not digress too much. TJ is a much better school than Blair. [b]And FCPS is much better than MCPS.[/b] None of you have provided much analysis of data, or presentation of data to refute the arguments presented above. But it was fun to watch you guys try. It was kinda funny: the numbers are fake! It's all lies! The media is so mean to us. It's so familiar..... [/quote] Yeah, FCPS is much better at losing to MCPS, you meant. 37-4[/quote]
