Wow, Troy High School made #28. But I have to agree that it's a freakin hard school to get into because it's so advanced.

I would search through the list to see if my school made it to the list...my school made it in the 800s range. Haha, I guess my school really sucks.

Troy's a public school, though. I know a lot of people who said that they took the test and were accepted, and that most people were actually accepted. Btw what part of So Cal do you live in?

I live in the East San Gabriel Valley.
I know a couple of friends from Troy (they are like genius-smart) and they paid to take a test to get in. Since they are so smart, they all got accepted.

Shoot, my school didnt even make the list! Perkiomen Valley supposedly the 2nd best school district in the state of PA, but i guess that was awhile ago. One school that I almost went to and my mom worked a(Wissahickon) was #1090. And Allderdice was 1183! That place was so ghetto, my aunt had to transfer to another school so she wouldnt get shot. Thats messed up.

HelloSunshine

Haha, wow, my school is a "Blue Ribbon school of Excellence" and we didn't even make it, yet some schools around my area that are worse schools are on the list. Wtf? I'm surprised my school didn't pay it's way onto the list, we're rich enough _dry.gif

The ranking system is BS, just to let you know.

My school has moved at least 30 spots (+/-) each year for the past couple of years. It now sits at around 150. Two years ago, it was about #50. Honestly, I don't see a difference in the quality of education provided.

I go to a private school _unsure.gif

JP Taravella Highshcool used to be one of the top schools of Florida, thank God I experienced it's great years before it went to shit.

It was an "A" school, and supposedly now it's a "C" school.
hollywoodpink
I think my school isn't on there because it's a charter school and it's got not only HS, but MS too.

But it got in the top 5 charter schools in CA and the top 50 in the U.S., ...I think. pinch.gif
xburnoutx00
The Charter School of Wilmington is mixed with Cab Calloway School of the Arts & that's a middle & high school so.. all the kids are mixed together. It's weird.

Comptine

that list is bullshit. my high school is the best public high school in NYC and it's pretty well known nationwide but it's not on there. people know it's a great school. we got everything - lots of teams/clubs and our school offers a crazy amount of AP classes.
