[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would check the school profiles.  There's a huge difference between the two schools if you want your kid to go to college.

WJ - 
% of Students Meeting University System of Maryland Entrance Requirements = 67.1%
School average SAT: 1234
% of Graduates Scoring 3 or Higher on AP Test or Scoring 4 or Higher on IB Test: 70.8

Whitman - 
% of Students Meeting University System of Maryland Entrance Requirements = 81.4%
School average SAT: 1339
% of Graduates Scoring 3 or Higher on AP Test or Scoring 4 or Higher on IB Test: 84.0[/quote]

[b]I prefer to use the data the county released by high school sorted by demographic cohort. This makes it easier to factor in SES differences and get a sense of how these schools really stack up.

For the largest cohort common to these two schools[/b], Whitman has an average of 1299 vs WJ which had 1275. Basically, both are fine schools and it's just a matter of splitting hairs.

The poster clearly stated they were comparing the largest common cohort to factor for demographic differences and get a head to head comparison.[/quote]
