[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]What about HGC students from CCES and Barnsley? Are they doing better than Cold Spring kids? [/quote]

Page 20, 17:09, so far only bad news for Barnsley. No news report from CCES as far as I can remember.[/quote]

No news report from anywhere. This is DCUM. DCUM is not a news outlet. DCUM is an Internet message board. On the Internet, nobody knows you're a dog.

The year my smart kid didn't get into a MS magnet, I didn't post on DCUM to say: my kid didn't get into the MS magnet; this proves that the admissions process is flawed and that MCPS hates smart kids.[/quote]

And did your DC get 4 99s, have straight As at an HGC vs. admitted kids having maybe one 98 or 99 and lower scores in the other three categories?[/quote]

I haven’t seen any real evidence - even counting postings here - that a significant number of kids with lower scores (not 99 across the board) got in.  [/quote]

That's because the people who got in aren't posting their scores, for the most part they are simply reporting an acceptance.  A few have said their kid didn't get straight 99's and others are not providing other information like MAP or PARCC scores, and that suggests that their kids did not have straight 99's combined with the other high metrics of the rejected students.  That is their right not to post the scores, and who can blame them, as there will be some people who make nasty comments about their kid getting in.  But it's highly unlikely that the people who got in are just naturally the ones who would not be inclined to share test scores.  [/quote]
