[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It looks like cold spring principal already confirmed the peer group consideration. Why do some people still try to downplay these kids’ achievements? Will there be kids with even superior scores? Likely. Someone disclosed median (97/99/97/99) of admitted. It already told you that at least half got scores not as good as 99ers. We are all entitled to our own opinions. But let us form opinions consistent with the info we obtained. [/quote]
Thanks I missed that earlier post.
So the median score of accepted students was 97/99/97/99.  Do we know of any rejected kids who got scores that were higher than this?[/quote]

I know of a rejected child, whose home school was majority low-income and majority Black, who had 99% across the board. That's why I'm not ready to jump on the "CS was discriminated against for their zip code" bandwagon, because I KNOW kids with high scores who were in the "right" zip code according to these folks, and were not admitted.
