The NY Post today published their list of the 50 best high schools in the city. The Specialized High Schools - which you test into via the SHSAT - took 7 of the top 8 rankings!
The lone exception, at number 3, was Townsend Harris; rounding out the top 10 where Eleanor Roosevelt (9), and NYC Lab School for Collaborative Studies (10).
A top ranking doesn't make a school right for your child, but the SHSAT has certainly been affirmed as the gatekeeper to the top schools in the city.
The NY Post article also published some presumably recent stats:
1) 28, 000 students took the test
2) 5, 000 seats available at the Specialized schools
