[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Parents are pissed rightly so that MoCo has very high income taxes and people with kids with high GPAs get rejected the only from UMD and need to pay an extra 60k to 100k to another’s states flagship to send their kid to school.

Unlike VA or NY with only one flagship and one with not strict limits like North Carolina etc on mainly excepting in state a ton of spots giving away to OOS students and tax payers are blocked from going.

In my case costing me $80,000 this rejection [/quote]

Agree that it is very frustrating that the families of magnet kids with stats and rigor higher than the majority of students accepted to UMD have to shell out tens of thousands of dollars more for college.  And that this wouldn't be the case if the kid went to almost any other high school.  [/quote]

Well the word is out and parents need to keep this in mind when deciding whether to accept a magnet invite. If the plan is UMD or bust, the home school might be more strategic.[/quote]

+1 Unless you're confident your kid will be in the top 10% or so in a magnet class, college admissions will almost always have better outcomes at the home schools these days. [/quote]
Not just magnet.  W schools have the same issue.[/quote]

ugh![/quote]
