[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Isn't the 60% the floor. Why assume that's what the FARMS kids are getting. It could still be a bunch of 90+ kids. That's just the range. Maybe 60 gets them to a reasonable pool and other schools get there at 95?[/quote] I think part of the problem is the terrible scarcity of seats at the magnets and the sense that they provide something considerably different/better than that provided at the home school. Getting a good pool is great. Serving that entire pool is better. Related, if MCPS is using the same pool to provide acceleration or enrichment locally, it's pretty difficult to see someone hitting the 94th percentile at one place not being offered classes that meet them where they are.[/quote]
