[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The county altered the testing methodology to be: 1) more inclusive i.e. tests way more applicants now 2) new criteria reduces the advantage of kids who prep[/quote] It stands to reason with the larget sample that median scores are now much higher too.[/quote] Median score is very unlikely to go up when you test more people. It is certainly not going to go up now when you deny entry of all those 99% kids from the W schools. [/quote] The median would be more reliable and consistent since the sample size is what 10X larger now. [/quote] And did the median scores of accepted students go up, down, the same? Why doesn't MCPS release those numbers like years in past?[/quote] If MCPS did provide this information, what would you do with it?[/quote]
