Why is a “magnet” schools which was previously accepted as a top school when academics (courses, essay, gpa, testing, etc.) was the only criteria when now the criteria includes points for experiential factors having absolutely no bearing on academic ability? Anyone who says TJ is as good as always is blind to what everyone else sees.

Well, that's not exactly accurate. Previously the only criteria was whether you could buy the test answers. These days it's at least based on merit.

Guess we both have the same time on our hands but only one of us substantively responded to the post. The other one couldn’t respond to my valid point so took the time to write essentially nothing and then added 5 emojis - also adding nothing.

Still seems better than memorizing test answers purchased from a prep center.

Failed what SOL? In what year- 9th?

I think it's math. No matter math or reading, it's crazy that it happened at TJ.

TJ admissions is trying to pick better students in the last couple of years but there will always be ones that get through. Parents keep your cheating, low performing students at the base school. They will go to better colleges from there we promise.
