[quote=Allan from Fallbrook]The problem with the results is the methodology used to calculate them.
My understanding is that other criteria, such as dropout rate, GPA per student/class, etc were not taken into account.
Rather the ranking simply looked at the number of Advanced Placement (AP) and Int’l Baccalaureate (IB) participants per school and divided that into the number of students in the school.
Seems like a pretty narrowly defined criterion. [/quote]
I agree that the methodology is less than perfect. But it’s the same methodology that newsweek has used for years. It’s a data point… among many data points.
