TJ grads often find colleges easier and place in the top 5 - 10% of the college class. Regular HS kids cannot compete with this kind of college preparation. |
| You TJ parents as pathetic as your kids... Living your life thru your kids... Sad losers. |
| The smartest of the smartest are at Blair. So that would be the most rigorous. |
This but include top tier privates with 3. |
This doesn't seem wholesome to me. Each one of these classes is equivalent to a college class, and no college student would take 8 classes at once. Ugh. |
TJ kids are "THAT" special.

TJ is the number 1 high school in the country along with the highest average SAT score so TJ has the most rigorous HS program. |

Wow... You need to get a life!
You don't "demand" respects. If you are good, people will know. No need to beat your own drum. A complete, genuine looser... |
You need to get a dictionary. |
| Endless bickering. |
This looks more like a response to the claim of TJ students only being a "test taker" than a "beat your own drum" by a "looser" |
