[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]A cohort of 20 "highly able" kids seems too small. Some of them would appeal and get in, so the cohort number might reduce to teens. 30 or above seems to be a more reasonable number. Also, does "highly able" mean 99%? If it is 95%, the pool is very big.[/quote] I think what 'highly able' means is left to the discretion of MCPS. They get to decide who are the chosen ones to be sent to the magnets and who will be going to the enriched magnet programs. I believe the 'cohort' should be just the right size to fit one class, so if only a few kids scored in the 99% in each MS, MCPS might as well add lower-scoring kids to the class. And, in certain schools, 99% might be the cut-off.[/quote]
