TJ’s colleges also looking good.

I’m from NY and currently live in VA (McLean). It seems like a lot of people in VA pick more publics like UVA, W&M and VT over other better privates.

There are about 900 kids in the graduating class and 120 posts on Instagram. I'm curious where the rest of the class is headed. With 900 seniors, I'd expect the top 10% headed to top colleges. These are the best students in NYC.

900 kids per grade??? That is a huge school.

Stuyvesant is awesome. Much harder to get into and do well in than TJ.

Based on most of those students were Asian I doubt this is an official school instagram account. But when you look at city public high schools and especially exam schools a majority of top students are from families who are new to the US, not just Asian countries.

Stuy doesn't base admissions on DEI

Lol you are obviously not familiar with Stuy. It is like 70%+ Asian. I know there were times where they also were challenged about admissions but I think they kept their standards unlike TJ.

It's a massive school-almost 1000 kids per grade. A few dozen ivies is not all that impressive.

I just looked it up. Stuy is 71% Asian.

TJ used to also be like 70% Asian but after the admissions changes, the last class was like 50% Asian.

This is one of the best high schools in the country. Why put it down? Can’t you just accept the colleges are impressive.

In 1987 I think 18 went to Harvard? … graduating class was about 750 then.

Different world in so many ways: NYU was an expensive commuter school, like why, Columbia also embarassing, especially for engineering…
