[quote=Anonymous][quote] That reflects the fact that it is a magnet program and the students have been cherry picked from the area HS. What about the program turned them into NMSF? What about the IB program at RM makes is different and more rigorous than an IB program elsewhere? TJ cherry picks too, that is why they have so many NMSF, but it also offers more intense and advanced science and math classes. Those additional classes are what make the program more rigorous. Having more NMSF in a [i]magnet[/i] program proves nothing to me except that the admissions program picks well. [/quote] Not sure what your point is. Are you saying the number of NMSF doesn't necessary represent the rigor of that particular high school? All magnets "cherry pick" their students. It is part of their selection process. And yes, the selection committee does fairly good job selecting the right kids. No doubt about that. [/quote]
