[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is a weird thread with op arguing with anyone who claims UMD as a safety. Whether op agrees or not, there are plenty of kids who are competitive for a T25 and wind up at UMD, which they considered a safety for them. [/quote] OP here. Most posts were not me. I do agree that a spot in a top20 computer science program is not a safety for anyone. It may not be a local kid's top choice or dream school but I don't think it's a safety. It's a super competitive admit. Again, I consider a "safety" to be an 80%+ chance. And if by chance a strong Blair kid does have an 80% chance of being admitted to UMD Comp Sci, 95% of regular strong students in the DMV do not have the same odds and this is a privilege unique to Blair kids.
