[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]where are you getting your stats?

I look on fcps and chantilly's overall is 1728... you have it listed as 1685.

Langley is 1850 --- but you have it listed as 1815.

west springfield is 1705, yet you have it listed as 1672.

these are just some examples.[/quote]

Taken from a post on another forum right after FCPS and LCPS announced 2015 scores as reported by College Board.  The numbers FCPS posts on individual school profiles are adjusted, higher numbers. You can see differences here:

Aren't they "adjusted" in that they only include kids who actually went to that HS, as opposed to your numbers which include kids who are home-schooled or who go to private schools in FCPS?  Seems like my numbers (only the kids who go to that hs) are the correct numbers to use if you are using them to represent the quality of the teaching or academics at a particular school.   The fact that private or home schooled kids in the Langley or Chantilly or ___ zone are bringing the total score down doesn't reflect on that school's quality or achievements.[/quote]

Fair enough but then you can't compare to LCPS schools unless you have the LCPS scores adjusted on the same basis.[/quote]
