Is Peter Stuyvesant having the same problems as TJ?

[Anonymous]

Or do they still get a large number of admissions to top colleges?

It's just called Stuyvesant HS.

Their demographics are very different, with something like 50% of the kids being first gen, and nearly as many FARMS. I would be surprised if their college admissions results are substantially different than in the past.

it's Stuy, since you're so familiar with it. You can look at their instagram page. The kids do great, which isn't a big shock, although money is often a big consideration. Every major college visits the school - some make pretty crazy announcements. UChicago said their director of admissions personally handles the Stuy file and reads all the essays.

Gutsy to say that. I'm surprised active wealthily alumni at privates don't get together and demand the same treatment for their schools.

If they aren’t doing that for every high school, they shouldn’t be doing it for one high school.

Some probably already have that treatment.

It is true. UChicago has AOs asdigned by territory, and Stuy falls under their director of admissions.

I think so. You can probably search NYT articles on it.

Lots of MIT and CalTech and totally miserable Asian students. 😁😁😁

I’m not saying I agree or disagree with this statement but there are a lot of schools like this on both coasts. Some HSs in Silicon Valley have high suicide rates and they are not even magnet schools—just base public schools.

I guess I can contrast that to the average high school we are zoned for where the high suicide rates are due to normal teen age issue/bullying/depression/mental illness. But you know, " average school", so they are not usually Asian.

What’s the “problem” at TJ?

[Anonymous]

I’m sure I’ll be really sorry I asked this, but what “problems” is TJ having?
