Nysmith: TJ Admission Rate

[Anonymous]

Hello: Does anyone have information on how good is the TJ Admission rate from Nysmith (As opposed to Rachel Carson MS which is also in the area). Looking to see if we should continue our DD in Grade 7-8.

Nysmith Parents, what are the statistics from last year. Any idea on how many kids from Nysmith applied, and how many got admitted.

Thank you

Call TJ admissions -- just guessing Carson will win

OP here. Thanks for your reply. Yes I know Carson is one of the highest in TJ admissions Just wondering what are the statistics specifically for Nysmith. What are their ratios of kids who apply, Vs those who actually get selected.

When we tour Nysmith a few weeks ago, the admission director mentioned that 1/3 of the graduating class is going to TJ, another 1/3 to Sidwell, and the rest going to other privates. She particularly highlighted that Sidwell considered Nysmith their feeder school.

That seems pretty shocking, considering the distance.

Thank you for your response. So I guess that means only 1/3 of the students probably made it to TJ from the ones who applied (as far as I know all apply).

I have been hearing their TJ admission rates are not as high as being said.

Isn't this a very high rate? which other school has 1/3 of kids admitted to TJ?

How many kids is that in each graduating class?

They have between 15-18 kids per class.

They have between 15-18 kids per class. So this equates to around a max of 20 kids to TJ at the most from Nysmith. Would you consider that a high ratio?

I think the OP is looking for the ratio of kids from Nysmith who apply and are accepted to TJ, not the ratio of kids from Nysmith at TJ.

Thank you - Yes. Trying to decide to keep child at Nysmith or move.

This is so incredibly false its laughable.

How many kids are in each graduating class?

There are, at most, two students from Nysmith students getting into 9th grade at Sidwell in any given year...
