[b]I bet not too many will get it[/b]. Einstein's average SAT score for Math and Reading combined is 1035 which is more than 200 points lower than bottom 25%tile of accepted student (1260-1420, mid 50%tile). Only about 50% of kids took the test which shows not enough kids are college bound. [/quote]

What do you consider "not too many?". My DC's high school has similar stats to Einstein's. For the past few years, about 51% of the students who applied to UMCP have been accepted, resulting that 20-something children were accepted. Many kids who know that they will have to attend MC for a few years (for financial reasons) don't even bother to apply, so those stats would likely be higher if those students were taken into account.

The bottom line is that a bright, well-performing student, [u]no matter which MCPS school they attend[/u], will have a fair chance of getting into UMCP. One doesn't have to attend a "W" school to get there; in fact, my kids probably have had/will have an easier time getting in than they would have at a school where the norm is to have a 4.0 and above 2000 on the SAT.
