True, but with the new system they only take very top kids from each school. Many of those kids who struggled were third rate preppers who couldn't cut it once they were in. The newer students may not have had as much outside enrichment but seem to pick things up more quickly and are more resilient.[/quote]

These would be the students that didn't bother to show up for tutoring for the math class they were having so much trouble with?  The ones to whom the teachers wrote a letter complaining about there poor performance?[/quote]

I thought those kids were mostly Class of 2024, not Class of 2025.

Most likely with the newer, watered-down classes the teachers will be instructed not to challenge the kids that much in the first instance. FCPS has a lot invested in proclaiming the “success” of the kids admitted under the new system. Whether the rigor diminishes doesn’t really matter to them. [/quote]

Many of those new students failed out for failing to meet the minimum 3.0 unweighted gpa requirement.[/quote]

#?  Is this data published somewhere?  [/quote]
I heard they almost did as badly as the 2nd rate preppers who got in on the old system when there was rampant cheating even.[/quote]

Only about 1-2% transferred out under the old system but that number increased significantly after the admissions system was changed. [/quote]

That's not what I heard. In fact, I was told it was the complete opposite. Do you have any actual proof of this or is this just your speculation to suit your personal bias?[/quote]
