[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These MD schools are in the top 500 and they don't even include MCPS really top 100 students that are equal or [b]better than TJ students[/b] because the school MCPS sends them to is Blair which is a large school in a low SES area.[/quote] Blair students are not "better" than TJ students.[/quote] Yeah, I noticed that too. There are 15 million high schoolers in the US. The top 1% could fill a thousand schools. There are smart kids in every school, and many many schools have a large number of very smart kids. It doesn't make any of them -- the kids or the schools -- "better" than any others. [/quote] +1000. The obsession with these absurd rankings is bizarre in such a highly educated area as DMV.[/quote] It makes perfect sense. Highly educated people who went to top schools. Reflects the competitive nature of this area.[/quote]
