[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you can get into tj you can crush sidwell. Not vice versa [/quote] I agree with this. It’s the getting into Sidwell part that’s the challenge. Not the work itself.[/quote] There are fewer spots at Sidwell, and they are not looking for grades/scores only, so lots of kids who would get into TJ will not get in to Sidwell, but similarly, some of the kids who get into Sidwell will not have the grades and scores to get into TJ. They are looking for different things in students.[/quote] +1. Sidwell is looking for bold faced names, donor admits and racial balancing, mirroring the college admissions process as it stands today. TJ is pure merit based on academics.[/quote]
