[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a ridiculous “discussion” sorry OP[/quote]
yes, someone comparing private IB to a public magnet in a large public.

I think OP's question was answered in pg 1 of the thread.

Summary:

RMIB is better; has a high diploma rate; peer group is more higher achieving.  The students start their magnet level classes (not IB, but magnet level) in 9th grade; example, RMS English is only open to RMIB magnet students.

BCC's program starts in 11th grade.  9th and 10th grades have classes with everyone else.[/quote]

The downside is your chances of being selected for RMIB are slim and nothing you can count on. [/quote]

Not slim if you have a kid with impressive academics.[/quote]

Help me understand this reasoning.  I have a kid currently at RMIB and she is impressive.  But unless you believe that there just happen to be, every year, roughly only 130 students in the entire district who are impressive, chances for any particular kid are slim.[/quote]
