[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]People lie and/or exaggerate. The median map r scores for Eastern magnet historically has been 234/235, which is the 94th percentile for Spring 5th grade. My child's compacted math 5/6 teacher left the fall 2017 map scores on her desk while conducting parent teacher meetings. I admit that I looked out of curiosity and noted that only a few kids scored over 260 on MAP M. Most of the kids were in the 230s to 250s. This was at one of the schools mentioned often on this board.[/quote]

Were these 260+ selected to TP?[/quote]

2 of them went to TP.  [/quote]

Were they the two who scored the highest on the MAP-M?  Were there others below 260 who got in to TPMS?  Or do you think MCPS does not really distinguish beyond a certain cutoff?[/quote]

MAP isn't really an admission criterion.  Or, it wasn't in previous years. It may have been consulted if kid was borderline.  Mine had crazy high Raven and not so great quant comp. Fortunately,  also high MAP M that winter.

With new admission being more vague, they may be playing more of a role, but I don't think anything definitive has been said about it. [/quote]
