OP Here. Thank you for standing up for me.

I am not here to brag and in an anonymous forum what will be point in bragging anyway. I will start like another PP suggested. My DC was accepted into three programs at Poolesville last year along with RM IB. DC's Pearson percentile in math was 97% and in verbal was 96%. I want this data to be public, so that parents who are in the path of appeal can justify their request.


This is great. My child had 98 percentile in both subjects and didn't get in. What's your child'd name so I can appeal the decision to let your child in? What's up with that? Your child should not have got in over mine.



OP here. I made the test score data public, however I will not make my DC's name public. Now it is upto you to appeal your child's rejection (not my child's selection). I do not believe my child was selected over yours (in specific terms). I am sure there would be legal ways to request data of all students selected and you can use the data to justify your appeal (for your child to be accepted).

My DC was injected brom Tokoma MS a few years ago. She had two score above the average of accepted, and one score on the average. When I asked why she didn't get on the waiting list. I was told there were too many student from our MS in the program. My DC went our local MS.

OP, the problem with your theory that "data" in an anonymous forum is worth about as much as the Saudi quarter my husband got back as change a few weeks ago.
