[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Looks like Universal screening diluted the requirements to get into HS magnet programs.[/quote] Making it easier to apply doesn't "dilute" acceptance requirements. There is still a screening and selection process. But if you are referring specifically to the language requirement, the need is for students to reach level 5 by senior year so they can test for the diploma in a language. Schools could offer a compacted language sequence (levels 1-3 in two years) or summer school to get kids there, if they didn't already have a year of language.[/quote] Agreed..being allowed to apply does not mean going to apply or going to be accepted. Kids generally know whether they want more challenge or not. Kids know if the can or want to have more work.[/quote]
