Keep telling your self that while TJ kids continue with the best college admissions results in the country.



That's because of the quality of the students, not the high school itself. If those kids had all stayed at their base schools and you posted admission information for them, the results would probably be just as good if not better.


Would you say the same thing to a smart STEM kid who got into Caltech to go to GMU instead of Caltech since you may have a higher chance of getting into a better grad school from GMU with likely higher gpa?

Why would you go to grad school in STEM lolz

I mean if your kid really loves research more power to them but you have to realize the huge disconnect of getting an MBA or Law degree or even an MD and then making bank vs getting a grad degree in STEM where you will be making barely anything.

To actually answer your question I would go to GMU why? Your kid would be a star and have access to all the faculty/research projects etc vs having to compete with time and attention from everyone else

All the depressed and addicted lawyers out there (at rates that are multiples of the general public) might say that there is more to life than "making bank". So do many TJ kids. it's not like top CS grads and Engineers are struggling to support themselves. I feel sorry for your kids, if every decision in their lives is focused on how they will grow up and "make bank". . Lolz.

So, is your kid aiming for Lee or Stuart and then GMU and GMU MBA or JD?

You ever hear of the bamboo ceiling concept it really applies especially since most of TJ is asian these days

Basically most of us are looking for our kids to go higher than worker bees/middle management lolz but keep thinking STEM is the way to being elite

Management consulting/Investment Banks have been taken over by STEM graduates, more or more lawyers have STEM background for IP, patent litigation etc.In fact, Harvard Business School's 2+2 program was designed for students with tech background and makes up about 65% of the class. Many middle and upper management have STEM background now days not undergraduate business degrees or business major combined with CS, Stat, applied math etc. You should wake up and smell the technology and automation revolution that is upon us. Days of history majors from Ivy League schools going into IBanks/Management Consulting companies are over.

Misleading.
26 applied
4 admitted (15% admit rate from TJ vs 9% overall admit rate).

Vs the other top STEM schools (MIT, CMU, Berkeley, GT, UCIC), Cal Tech has a lot less TJ interest, and a fraction of the TJ applicants.

For example, Berkeley. Also a UC. Only one position different in engineering rankings. 97 applied, 34 admitted, 11 attending.

No idea what the difference is.

Caltech is very small and very quirky. It is the right fit for some kids and not the right fit for others.

I've known a couple of TJ kids who were accepted there and thought of it as their first choice. They went out there to visit and decided it was not the right place for them and they each ended up at other excellent schools. It is also a full day of air travel away and not everyone wants to be that far from home.

Caltech is not a UC.


Also, it's UIUC NOT UCIC or UICU. You should take your med before posting anything further. Remember, it's UIUC.

You know that someone has lost the argument (bigly) when the best they can do is insult the PP for transposing letters. It's like the grammar police. But with even less substance.
