[quote=Anonymous]" OP - I know you are not going to believe this but magnets are HARD to get in. No more, no less. " This is NOT the complete story. There are two groups of kids that get into the magnets. One group is just so far out on the bell curve that getting into a magnet is simply a matter of not being a discipline problem in MS. The other group is picked from a much larger group of smart but not exceptional students. This picking is VERY competitive. Given the level of MCPS MS classes, the difference between the two groups is almost impossible to observe from grades but their middle school teachers KNOW. This is why the one MS teacher who posted on this thread would smile to themselves when the parents of a smart but not exceptional student would claim their DC was going to Blair.[/quote]
