[quote=Anonymous] There are roughly 2.4 million men in the United States 6 foot 4 or taller. There are roughly 500 professional basketball players in the NBA Using height as shorthand for ability to perform at the elite level would be foolishness... as would using a CoGAT score as shorthand for who would be best suited for a magnet program. There is a LOT more to recruiting than just one or two descriptive statistics Fixed it for you[/quote] Yes... but the player who is 5 foot 1 inch is not NBA material. Just as the 85% kid is NOT AS GOOD as the 99% kid. And this is not using just COGAT. Use a composite score. That's fine...MAP + COGAT + School grades. Anything but a lottery. And yes, my kid is in a magnet and had 99% scores in MAP and COGAT and straight A's and did not go to Dr Li.... and is thriving in their magnet [/quote]
