[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]That poster sayings its 35 is wrong! They don't understand MCPS either. It's 41 percent. [/quote]

"I am not the poster who suggested the RM IB NMSF percentage was 35%. However, I just looked for some data. The profile for RM's IB program states that roughly 25% of the school's students are in the IB magnet program. RM had 482 seniors last year. That translates to roughly 120 magnet students. Even assuming that all 41 semifinalists were in the magnet program, which may or may not be true, that would be about 35%. It seems like a reasonable estimate. But even if it were understated, the much larger total of NMSF at TJ would still be more relevant."

"funny... lier asking for legitimacy?"

"We know the number of TJ NMSF 164

You provide the sources for RM IB's NMSF numbers and the RM IB's exact class size as well before calling anybody "lier"."

"You got your answer so where did you get the 162 and 500 numbers? Still waiting..."

"At this point, it's quite clear the RM/IB parent has lost the argument, so all she's going to do now is spew personal insults and try to make it harder for people to finds the posts on the thread that actually set forth the facts."
