makes me not want to send my child here. is that the point?[/quote]

Absolutely not. Please send your kids there. It is a great place as long as you don't get into competition mode. You kids will be challenged. No need to break them. There are some really top kids - maybe 10 in the class and then there are 10 kids who you may think are not that great but end up hitting it out of the park as they start enjoying the math. You know your kid. 
I know some kids who were supposed to be more advanced who may not have been that strong and ended up just hating math.

DC is not into "competition mode" and loves the magnet. We sent them because they really wanted to go there. If your child wants to go, let them. If your child doesn't want to commit to the extra commute and longer school day, they still can be successful at any MCPS school. [/quote]

Yeah. And just to reiterate going to the magnet does not help and may in fact hurt with college admissions![/quote]

I always love reading the desperate posts by people trying to get others to decline in order to make room on the way list.[/quote]

I know especially the ones going on about commute times. I mean my youngest child's bus to ES which only goes 0.75 miles takes close to an hour. [/quote]

My kid whose home school is Blair has to get the bus at 6:50am.[/quote]

OMG that's just insane!?!?![/quote]
