No disagreement with the general characterization, but the college outcome results are not correct, can easily google at Bethesda Magazine.

Also not correct, that last year (2023) RMIB produced twice as many NMSF as Blair. MCPS announcements on number of NMSF winners have been very consistent in the last 20 years. Blair has always been the majority, typically 40+ NMSF. RMIB has very good results as well, but about 50-75% of Blair's.

Hope this doesn't become another pissing battle, both magnet programs are excellent, with Blair more focused on STEM, and RMIB more focused on humanitieis and analytical writing. Both schools have all the resources to produced excellent grads going to top colleges. To each their own.

Once again, Blair magnets are larger than RMIB.

Think about the math (ironic).

RMIB accepts about 125 students each year

Blair Magnet accepts about 100 students each year

It is indeed ironic that your math skills is not up to par

It seems like that poster was correct after all. According to this document, RMIB average SAT score was 1236 in 2023.

That is obviously, obviously a mistake.

It's impossible for both of these claims to be true for the 120ish student IB program, even including the local reserved seats.

The Mean SAT scores for the Class of 2023
Evidence Based Reading and Writing: 621
Mathematics 615 Total - 1236

That's a NMS index of 186

• National Merit Scholarship Competition; Commended Students - Class of 2023- 72

Cut off is above 207

72 of 125 students scored above about 1380, the Commended Scholar cutoff.

That means that the median score was above 1380

It's probably a mistake but that does the commended score have to do with the SAT average?
The commended scores are PSAT, not SAT.

OMG I also think it's wrong - maybe not a "mistake" but maybe something the RMIB staff put on there on purpose for one reason or another.

But you need to learn basic math. The median being that number does not mean that the mean cannot be 1236 something. It's mathematically improbable but it is possible.

Have. Not read this who’s thread but my son chose Blair over RMIB bc it was closer to our house and I didn’t like the vibe at RM. too striver, competitive, where are you going to college and all that. Grades for grades’ sake etc. I loved how Mr Ostrander - in the intro- said “we do not have a slide for where our kids go to college. That is not important here- come to Blair if your kid wants to have a great HIGH school experience. Your kids are smart and college will work itself out.” So refreshing! Student-focused!

Anonymous wrote:RMIB accepts 120+ students; 20+ are reserved for its feeder school, JW. So it brings in about 100 students from outside. About SAT score, 12xx is inline with the school score. It cannot be RMIB’s score. In fact, I haven’t heard anyone got a score below 1500; mostly 1550+.

But I recently heard a mom of a straight-A student at RMIB worrying that her kid couldn’t even break 1450 on the SAT.
There was also a news article saying that Blair SMCS magnet students have the highest SAT average in the country. Honestly, I think Blair is probably always at the top nationwide, and it makes sense. Other states' STEM schools are huge, with 400–800 students per grade, but Blair only has 100 per class, so it’s a super selective group. You don’t have to be amazing at math to get into RMIB, whereas Blair only takes kids who are really good at math. And their English skills are probably similar, right? Kids who are insanely good at math usually do well in English too.
Of course, college admissions aren’t just about SAT scores, and RMIB students do great too, but if we’re talking purely about academic ability, Blair SMCS is one of the top in the nation.

No, it's the school's overall average score
