[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TJ fans love to claim they are number 1. It is worth pointing out that these Blair magnet kids 12/100 of them were Intel award winners and about 30/100 National Merit Semifinist. However, they never are counted in the number 1 or top 500 schools because unlike every other magnet school (TJ, Stuyvesant etc)[b] they are not in a whole school magnet but instead liberal MCPS has these kids in a low SES school to try to pull up the numbers of the school[/b].[/quote] +1 I don't think you can compare TJ to Blair for this very reason. One is a complete magnet test-in school. The other is not. If you only pulled out the magnet kids from Blair and compared to TJ, that would be a more fair comparison.[/quote]
