[quote=Anonymous]I'm a scientist, MIT grad and my kid got in to TJ. I'm so torn about how to advise on it. My high school experience was fine but the way they structured sports and intense academics meant you had to choose and absolutely couldn't do both. I also couldn't do band with my schedule conflicts. I was unhappy to give up sports. My child loves sports, loves music and is very gifted but not entirely as self-motivated as I once was. Motivated enough to register to take the exam. I did a competitive sport at MIT and was able to balance the academic load but they also structured sports to not conflict with academics. I also did not have a 5.0 at MIT. Anyone else have the same concerns?[/quote]
