[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The MAJORITY of Magnet kids go to UMD. [/quote] Cite source, please. I'm not saying that they don't, but it would be good to see the cited numbers.[/quote] At the magnet information session, we were told that half of the magnet graduates to go UMD-CP. [/quote] You do realize that this cohort is a small one and most magnet kids are not the social butterflies of the school. Blair has a ton go to UMD-CP because they get into honors college with scholarship. Some go for free. So yes, maybe they get into Rice or Michigan but they aren't going for free. UMD-CP for in-state or cheaper is a no brainer. Most families choose magnet over private due to costs. Same with college. And their cohort of friends are all together at UMD-CP. [/quote]
