[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You know you can file a Maryland Public Information request and MCPS would have to release information such as:

Number of kids considered county wide and by school
Number of kids placed in lottery pool countywide and by school
whether 1 lottery pool was run or several and if several what criteria (sex or other statuses?) 
breakdown of number of kids considered with IEPs, 504 plans, FARMS status and by race
Range, mean and median of MAP scores and GPAs of considered students, pooled students and lottery winner students
number of waitlisted students 
number of acceptance/declines of admissions offers

I’d also want to know how the admitted cohort of students broke out by sex, race, ethnicity, ESOL, FARMS and IEP and 504 status compared to the same categories of admitted students last year and the year before to see how the pandemic affected the process. [/quote]

Just looking at the reported stats it's a safe bet that like previous years 95% of the students selected will be in the top 5%, BUT since selection was by lottery and the bulk of the pool is in the 240-255 range, it's likely there will be many real outliers next year.

You should have smart kids but FEW outliers.[/quote]

The class will be fine since they're all above average but will not have the same number of truly gifted students like years past.[/quote]
