Wow, I assure you that I am not “fabricating falsehoods.” I have no reason to “envy” TJ- my child graduated from TJ within the last ten years, so before the admissions changes. I did a lot of volunteer work there while my child was a student, so I am very familiar with the school. I did a lot of research before allowing my child to apply, in addition to talking to my friend who taught there. I also always kept a good dialogue going with my child about right and wrong, honesty, and what constitutes cheating and plagiarism. We sometimes had discussions about kids he knew who had been caught cheating and why those actions were wrong. |
As people have said from day 1, the TJ case has no merit. It would be laughed out of court. |
It’s not top 1.5%, it’s the top 1.5% of those who apply. |
What?? No! Just think about the numbers. A slot is allocated to 1.5% of students per school and those slots are given out to the top applicants for each school, assuming they meet the minimum requirements for TJ. |
