[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Alas, to the contrary, the public magnet schools do NOT make a big deal of NMSF since 50% of their graduating classes get this distinction.  It is the private schools that make a big deal since so few get the distinction (exception rather than rule)![/quote]

Not really but if it makes you feel better. 
My kids’ private school keeps telling him to not prepare for the PSAT. No one he knows has even registered for SAT yet. He is a junior. [/quote]

Ok ok.   So for the record nobody is trying to do well on the PSAT but the magnets schools are still kicking butt.  Got it.[/quote]

Nobody is saying the magnet school kids aren’t excellent at test taking. It’s your insistence at trying to put down [b]private school kids (who don’t even care about NMSF!)[/b] that’s giving us pause. [/quote]
DP
11 pages thread on NMSF, bragging about how it shows one school is better than all the others and you are telling that private school kids don't care about NMSF?
Sure![/quote]
