[quote=Anonymous]My kids went to MCPS magnet programs. They had a wonderful and productive time in college. Both went to in-state public colleges. Both did double majors because of AP/IB credits. We discouraged them from finishing early. Since they had merit scholarship (tuition covered) for 4 years, we thought that they both should make full use of it and do full 4 years of college - with some easy classes and an easy pace. Both gainfully employed right out of college (tech). Both got admitted to multiple colleges. In-state public colleges made it very attractive by giving free tuition, college credits, honors college etc. Both rejected the higher ranked OOS colleges (those were also public colleges but in another state) because the in-state option were quite good in chosen majors, and they wanted to save money.
