So maybe the misreporting isn't as rampant as some are claiming.

Yes, I don't think there are that many amoral parents who'd falsely claim they are economically disadvantaged.

The questions were incredibly poorly written. They were written such that even an honest (but possibly clueless) non-low income parent might have checked yes.

If your child has been getting free meals ALL year and you are asked is your child getting free meals, many parents will check yes! It’s ridiculous that the admissions office is being allowed conduct admissions in such an manner. I’ve emailed Laura Jane Cohen and she didn’t care either. It’s all about getting a good press release apparently.

Yes. It’s ironic that Brabrand was so enamored of claiming kids were getting into TJ due to “pay-to-play” when they just ended up swapping that for a classic political patronage scheme. Doesn’t matter whether the best qualified kids are getting in as long as the seats are distributed across the county and poor kids are getting an advantage that kids whose families worked hard to ensure they weren’t on FARMS don’t receive.

Except now the best kids are getting in instead of the most prepped.

Hardly.

The best kids are Asian.

This is so racist.

Sometimes the truth is racist.

Asians outperform Caucasians. That's a documented fact when looking at test scores and other stats.

It’s also a fact that Asians parents/students will cheat on the same tests and stats.
Asian parents will take over the elementary school activities pipeline and push out any other competitive kids not part of their particular Asian group.
Asian parents will often say “oh your kid could spend the time doing math & science” BUT when a non-Asian parent calls a stem center to get their kid math & science lessons the phone doesn’t get answered or the non-Asian parent gets told their is no room the second the receptionist hears a non-Asian name.

The US has allowed recently many Asian parents to immigrate quickly with tech visas. Instead of those recent Asian parents helping all children in the country, they set up “learning” centers and “we only help those in OUR community”. I have actually heard Asian parents say that.

This is EXACTLY why people want the seats distributed fairly in a public high school paid for with tax dollars. Developing intelligence and talent is a matter of opportunity. The seats at TJ shouldn’t be given to only one group of parents who declare themselves superior by their own feedback loop of pushing out every other group unfairly.

99% of varsity blues convicts are white parents cheating and bribing so stop with the racist trope. You are gross.

Yes, white parents were not satisfied with all the advantages experienced from legacy preference, recruited athletes preference, connections preference, donations preference etc. so they had to cheat, bribe and commit crimes to further gain additional advantages by CHEATING, LYING and BRIBING for their privileged kids so don't go around mouthing that Asians cheat as if Asians are the only ones cheat.

Snake oil salesman? Really? Dude went to McKinsey, was a Co-CEO of Carlyle and donated a huge portion of his earnings to charity. I do not agree with lot of his politics. But he is definitely not a snake oil salesman. An overwhelming majority of Asians vote Democrat traditionally. The way they are being treated, things may change which will be sad.

I remember the Sunday after Youngkin got elected, my Korean pastor said "because hundred of thousand Korean Christians prayed Mr. Youngkin got elected". I don't know why I still attend this church

It’s a racist troupe to say all white people are rich and just buy their way into collage.

The same posters who want to say Asians are the smartest group, gets enraged and cries foul when anyone points out how racist their statement is.
Yes, a very small group of mostly white parents went to JAIL for cheating the system for their kids. I agree they should go to jail.
How about the Asian parents at TJ (and other schools) that directly set up and run their high schooler’s “charity company” or other “online company” and put it on their resume for collage? How is that fair? Shouldn’t those parents also go to JAIL for cheating the system so their kid gets into a selective university?
What about all the Asian parents that have their non-citizen kids come to the US in 6th grade to stay with a “family member” and cheat the system to go to TJ? Shouldn’t the parents be prosecuted and the student removed?

What about the parents of boys who cry foul when it comes time for collage…..but refused to stop their sons from terrorizing girls in the Stem groups in elementary/middle school saying “boys will be boys”? How fair was it for those girls to have to endure the taunts and abuse from their classmates or drop out? The same parents will try to justify it saying “studies prove boys are better at stem” which is BS. Just like saying Asian people are smarter, which is BS. A hundred years ago the same type of testing was used to justify saying white men were smarter, which was BS.
Immoral people love to twist things as long as it fits the narrative they want to hear and gets them personally ahead.

He started out elsewhere and got in as a transfer after his Dad paid off some admissions officer. I've read he also paid someone to take the SATs for him.

You should visit Korean churches during election year. They are great GOP marketing machine. GOP candidates come to the mega churches and promise all sort of bs

“ I read that 30% of the class came from one prep center last year and they posted their names online. Guessing the other 60% came from different prep centers?”

The crazy use of test prep centers is what drove reform. People were sick of it.
