[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Blair SMCS parent here--anecdotally from DC, kids themselves still keeping close to their chests. It's fewer than 100 kids who've been in this together for a long time, and know they're applying to a lot of the same schools, so one kid's admit might be a friend's deferral. It's not like TJ, much bigger, or the privates, where the college counselor pretty much makes sure that the EDs are parceled out across the class and where kids have more divergent interests/strengths compared to the Blair stem magnet, so that they don't have the same degree of overlap. Yes, you can see on Bethesda magazine, and the school paper/magazine at least a couple of years ago also published pretty much the whole list when all was said and done. (Before getting through the other comments, was inclined to add that at least some of the Blair SCMS kids def see the RM kids as boasty, and not just about college admits, as a contrast. Obvi a generalization, but that feeling has been said in a several different contexts over the years in DC's cohort. YMMV.)[/quote] I'm hearing results from my kid's regional IB and they are [b]fantastic[/b]. Same stats as the RMIB kids but a smaller cohort. Less competition from their friends.[/quote]
