[quote=Anonymous]+1. The apologists for mediocre SAT scores on this thread aren't doing the most academic Banneker kids scoring in the 400s and 500s any favors. Yes, there are always going to be a few kids who score low yet excel at top colleges, but, for the most part, this isn't the case. Common sense dictates that high SAT scores mean well-prepared kids. Banneker's average scores are so low for a selective admissions HS that the Johns Hopkins CTY camps, popular with DCUM parents, require higher scores for kids to attend the summer AFTER 7th GRADE. Average scores at School Without Walls are only a tad higher than Banneker's, still in the 1500s. No wonder BASIS has been invited to DC - their original Tuscon and Scottsdale branch average scores are 2000+. Look on the Newsweek Best High Schools list for confirmation. [/quote]
