[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]A lot of kids who came through the Curie system are struggling [/b]as well as many kids who got in due to various bonus points.

We need reform of admissions. At least introduce teacher recommendations.

 :D   must be Curie dropouts who couldnt survive their curriculum, but TJ lottery admission unwisely got them in.  [/quote]

Going to curie doesn't make you smart.  
The majority of curie kids don't get in.
The smart kids that went to curie were the ones that used to get in, now it's a random selection of kids including a random selection of curie students.
Back when there was a merit based admissions process, most of the students could handle the academic rigor.
Now they can't so they reduced the academic rigor so they don't end up failing a third of the class and giving another third all Bs and Cs.

So the upside is that the kids that would have gotten in anyway are no longer competing with 400 other students for top spots, they are competing with maybe 100 other students.
The stress levels are still high but reasonable[/quote]
