[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does MCPS really want kids qualifying for magnet AIM who have only gotten through Math 5 content? They should make 5/6 AND a high MAP score a prereq for inclusion in the MS math/science lottery.[/quote] If they have a high MAP score, that means they got through Math 5/6 content, regardless of what class they are enrolled in. [/quote] Except they are taking g a different test that is easier. If they had to take the 6+ test like the 5/6 kids do then your argument would make more sense [/quote] The tests have overlapping content. [/quote] They do, but they are not comparable. Kids taking 6+ typically go down quite a bit from their last 2-5 test. MCPS, of course, has not thought this through and will be doing apples-to-oranged comparisons that favors kids taking the 2-5 test.[/quote]
