Montgomery Blair and the Deathly Standardized Tests

So, this past week in the wonderful world of standardized testing at MBHS:

  • AP test scores from the 2009 AP Tests are being analyzed by some administrators
  • PSAT registration for all those unlucky juniors has begun
  • "College prep" talks from guidance counselors about standardized tests for seniors are over
  • Blair has 53 National Merit Semi-finalists (46 of them Magnet)
  • 8th graders wanting to get into the Blair Magnet have probably started losing 40% of their hope
  • 12th graders trying to get into a top 10 college are probably prepping a large dose of sleeping pills... just in case
  • SAT registration for October be ovar.
Isn't the College Board just wonderful.
