[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that the range OP is sharing does not support an argument that this class is strong or stronger.

Here's the deal -what you want to see is the range and numerical distribution across the range for the OOB students. TPMS along with all other magnets keeps 25 seats set aside for in boundary students. The reason these are seats are set aside is because there wouldn't be 25 students scoring at the top or within the acceptance range if the bar wasn't set for lower for them. Most of these students would cluster toward the bottom of the distribution -this happens at all magnets. It could be a true statement that score ranges haven't changed but what has changed is that the number of students clustering toward the bottom range is no longer just the set aside in boundary students but more of the OOB students with the highest scoring students left back at their home schools.

This+1! Talking about range is nothing. Since OP knows all the numbers, why not give us a general statistics, e.g., mean, standard deviation, Kurtosis, etc.[/quote]
