Math in HS for MIT

It was definitely not based on SES, race, etc. Only one person in my geometry class last year was recommended for honors. My friend group from geometry (minus the one girl that got recommended) all got recommended for non-honors despite us all getting A’s and consistently doing well. The girl recommended for honors had an A+ all year.

With whom did they fill the honors course with, if only one student was recommended for it? Or did she get to be personally tutored by the teacher as the only student in the course?
