[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]85% doesn't seem to make much sense. That's just like okay smart. They should use at least 90%, or maybe something like 90% or above for last two years, plus at least one score about 95%. And then lottery from there. That would probably create a pretty good pool of kids.[/quote] That is what they used to do. As recently as about 5 years ago. I went to the MCPS meeting where they first started saying they would be accepting 85%ile kids from some schools and 90%ile kids from other schools. They made it clear that there would be a shift from accepting the ‘highest’ performing kids, to higher performing kids from lower-performing schools. [/quote]
