[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yes. The stats in Bethesda Magazine, from what are considered among some of the best public high schools around, are very sobering.[/quote] Agreed. And, Whitman wasn't the school that seemed to have best results. That was also surprising. [/quote] I actually disagree both that the results were that sobering or that Whitman didn't have the best showing. On the first point, the numbers are entirely consistent with the numbers being reported by the colleges (Harvard only has a 5 percent acceptance rate, remember?), and on the second point I'd suggest you look again. Whitman generally did do better than the others, although not every single time. (I have no connection to Whitman.) Sure is tough to get into U-Va from the Maryland schools . . .[/quote]
