[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]AP CompSci in freshman year - congrats! So I keep hearing stories about students getting B’s and even some C’s and “average” students being stressed about GPA So if the HW load is not too crazy - is it that the quizzes and exams are hard or is it mostly because the kids are pushing themselves to take AP and more advanced courses? [/quote] [b]It's because some kids are there that don't belong there.[/b] If your kid is actually smart there isn't an issue. [/quote] 1) There's a piece of this that is true in that there have always been a significant number of kids at TJ who don't belong there. A good way to know that you don't belong at TJ is if you're up past, say, 10 PM studying and doing homework every night without a significant commitment to an after-school activity. 2) There are and have always been plenty of very, very smart kids who struggle at TJ for a variety of reasons.[/quote]
