If you think your kid was quota-ed out at your home middle school, then they should be geniuses enough to get a county-wide offer, right?[/quote]

The only way to be quotaed out is if there is a maximum quota per school.   Do they have a list of admissions by school the past four years?  Are Stone Hill Brambleton, and Eagle Ridge sitting at 20-25 every year?[/quote]

Reading comprehension doesn’t seem to be your strong suit. There are three rounds of admission as not every initial offered kid within the initial quota accepts, nor do they fill all the slots. So they go back county-wide and now a school can have more than their initial 8-12 allotment.

Think about it, if a school has 8 spots by population, only 6 kids actually apply - those two empty spots have to go somewhere. Not every middle school has 50 Brambletonians applying.[/quote]

If only 6 apply, they can't be quota-ed out.  I am claiming that even if there are 50 applying at Brambleton(and it is much more) and even if 30 of them are scoring high on the county wide pool, they will not let #s 26-30 in because there is a maximum quota.  Other Brambleton students would have to decline offers.[/quote]

Again, you’re wrong. Read again.[/quote]

You speak with such authority. How do you know this? As in, feel free to provide the link from which you are getting this information.[/quote]
