[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Notice how there isn't a discussion of #2. Academic Magnet High School (SC) that's 78% white, about its lack of diversity. Funny how a non-white majority that is excelling is taken down by woke whites in the name of 'equity.' [/quote]

White wokes got woken when their kids couldn't make it. So they changed the process and removed the test. whites up 26%. asians down 26%. mission accomplished. [/quote]

So you define best as those who spent the $$ to buy access to the test from the prep center?[/quote]

Seems like the well prepped kids are keeping TJ on top. [/quote]

One might believe that if these rankings had any merit but since we know it's just a reflection of the student's family's HHI this simply indicates that the admissions process overly favors the wealthy. [/quote]

TJ ranks higher than Langley![/quote]

And Langley's HHI is higher than that of TJ.[/quote]

There is a direct correlation between these standardized test averages and school SES. More often than not [b]it's not the hgih-flyers but the absence of low-scorers bringing down the average[/b] but regardless neither  indicates school quality.[/quote]

+1000. The top 5 students at Mt. Vernon are equal to the top 5 students at Langley as far as scores and academic potential. However, the bottom 5 at Mt. Vernon are magnitudes and worlds away from the bottom 5 at Langley[/b].[/quote]

You're on to something! I've always thought that high-fliers would pretty much do the same at any school. I mean sure Langley may have 4-5 sections of AP English and Mount Vernon may only have 2-3 but they still cover the same material with the same FCPS teachers.[/quote]
