[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] But this has always been the case - more candidates than spots - except that this year there's WAY more candidates than spots. I don't know what MCPS has achieved but now the process looks even more arbitrary and unfair than before.[/quote] The process looks more arbitrary and unfair [i]from the perspective of white/Asian middle class families[/i]. From the perspective of poor and working class families, and non-Asian families of color, it is exactly the same level of arbitrary and unfair that it has always been, maybe a bit better. [/quote] Yes, basically the argument here is "It looks more arbitrary and unfair because it happened to my kid." Which I definitely understand. The year it happened to my kid, a few years ago -- that's when it looked more arbitrary and unfair to me.[/quote]
