Contrary to popular belief, a magnet school is not a place where Juggalos go to learn about science.

As a junior now who does plan on going into computer science and not using english, history, or a lot of other things I still wouldn't want to go to a magnet school. You need a diverse background in education, and it's better to explore all possibilites rather than focus on one while you're still very young.
