[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The bottom line is that if you're in a close-in MCPS school and are NOT a [b]stellar[/b] student, you're not getting into UMD. My friend's kid at Walter Johnson experienced this last year. She was a [b]mediocre[/b] student who was accepted to Ohio State and rejected at UMD. I'm sure there's an Ohioan with the same profile as hers who was accepted to UMD and rejected from Ohio State! [/quote] Define the two words in bold in this context: steller at which "close-in" school and what does mediocre look like at WJ?[/quote] DP here. But the issue isn't that mediocre students at WJ or other Ws are not getting in. That makes sense, actually. It's that many smart and high stat students at these schools are not getting in because there's more competition at their schools, whereas similar students at a non-W would most likely get in. Not gonna lie but I'm thankful my kid doesn't go to a W for this reason.[/quote]
