[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Y'all are just mad that UMD no longer a safety option. You didn't send your kids to a tough magnet or drive them to all those robotics tournaments so that they could go to UMD. UMD knows that your high-stats kid at the high-performing school isn't going to choose them, so they didn't choose them either...[/quote] NP. Interesting though, it looks like TJ sends 30+ kids there a year. My CS major also from FCPS (non-TJ) runs into them regularly. [/quote] That ^PP is on crack or something. UMD admits a lot of magnet students, not all, but a lot. My own MCPS magnet kid is there as a CS/math major, and they see several magnet kids there, too. They all also applied to the usual T10 for CS, and most were rejected. All high stats kids, my own included. UMD doesn't yield protect.[b][/quote][/b] They don't need to. Especially with what they offer to in-state magnet kids and DMV high-stat kids. UMD courts the best STEM kids and it has added to their prestige and ranking. Look at where UMD stands in its Math, Physics, CS and Eng programs. And business, accounting and Econ is also rising very fast. [/quote]
