[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]As a PBES parent. I'm aware of how my DC and several of their friends score on their MAPs and at least in their circle of friends, high 90s is fairly common.[/quote]

Well unfortunately this confirms the previous posts that Piney Branch is just not as high as other CES schools. High 90s isn't very high. A 98% is at the lower end of the grade in some schools. CES kids should be 99% across the board on MAP and they are at some other schools.

What you need to compare is the scores not the percentile because its normed across the country so even 99% in and of itself is not a high enough indicator. However, if the kids that you know at PBES are just in the high 90s you should know that they would not get into the CES programs in some other schools. [/quote]

I didn't want to be specific, but if you insist on being a jackass, I can spell it out. DC typically scores 10 points over the 99% and they're not even the highest of their friends.[/quote]

It's not surprising to people who live in Takoma. Half the neighbors are professors with advanced degrees from Harvard or Stanford. :D[/quote]
