[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] It makes perfect sense. The lottery this year consisted of student s who scored 85% or higher. Students were selected at random. The majority of new magnet students will be close to 85%.. this is very different than previous years where 90% scored 95% or higher. Next year that number will be more like 20%.[/quote] Unlikely, as everyone who responded to previous magnet MS threads about their kids' MAP scores indicated they were in the high 90s. [/quote] You need to go back and read the post again. Most of the posts that reported scores in the high 90s weren't selected whereas the few that said they got in were very low from years past.[/quote] From the pool of students with 85%+ 1 in 10 were likely between 85-90 whereas 1 in 40 were 99% consequently there are a lot more 85% kids picked that's just how it works.[/quote]
