[quote=Anonymous]In terms of college admissions, it will depend on what the home school option is. Bright kids need a peer group to really get it going. And if that's not available at the local school, magnet is definitely the better option. But if you are zoned in a high performing district with all the tracked and AP options, I don't see why anyone would chose a magnet. MIT and Stanford aren't taking more than a handful of students at best from any school, even the magnets. As a parent, I would focus on peer group when deciding. [/quote]
