[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am really surprised by some of the rejects people have posted. My DS got in, as I expected he would, for Fall and selective major. Most of his friends from midrange non W MCPS public also got in (although not sure if FC or not, didn’t ask, didn’t tell). It must be somewhat of an advantage to come from a lower performing school? Maybe these kids went test optional but pretty sure they didn’t break 1300 and are in calculus now, senior year and only had a few APs. Mixed messages. I guess just count my blessings….[/quote]

Usually 50% of those who apply  get in from my kid’s W school. What percentage of kids get in from your non W school?[/quote]
Sorry, [b]what is a a W/non W school? [/b]Thanks[/quote]

It’s used as shorthand for the higher SES high schools in MCPS - Whitman, Wootton, Walter Johnson, Winston Churchill.[/quote]

And Watkins Mill[/quote]

LOL!!! This made me smile. I went to a school in the county similar to WM and laugh at the superiority complex of the typical W schools. Get over yourselves![/quote]

It is funny…and to give it a name like “The W’s.”  It’s really funny…[/quote]

+1 the W’s are like the Wannabes…no advantage over other MCPS schools…too funny[/quote]

Who said they did? [/quote]

The Wannabes did[/quote]

So people who go to schools other than W schools want the W school people to be wannabes? [/quote]

Hahahaha, “the W schools” - too funny…[/quote]
