[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Lots of Curie kids got in this year. My friend joined his DS in Curie this year. Looks like the changes FCPS made have a big boost to Curie.[/quote] Given that the number of students admitted from Curie reduced from 133 to about 90 this year (in a year where total admits went from 480 to 550), and that the percentage of FARMS students increased from about 1% to about 25%, I think it's safe to assume that the admissions changes had a negative impact on the prep market.[/quote] If it had a negative impact, then Curie's numbers should have dropped like a rock. They added a per school quota. Without this quota, it is likely that Curie's numbers would have gone up. It is the quota seats that didn't pay Curie. Curie was able to prep for the essay better than they could prep for a math test, which in the end requires the students to do the work. [/quote]
