[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Please excuse the stupidity of my question but I’m not in social circles with many parents of kids interested in pursuing TJ. We don’t have any plans for DC to take courses to prepare, but are there workbooks or sample questions I should get for DC to practice? [/quote] Honest answer is that it now depends where your child goes to middle school. If applying from a middle school that has lots of TJ applicants then it’s best to prep as much as possible because the competition for admission is against that smaller selection pool rather than county-wide. If your DC goes to an fcps middle school that is currently and traditionally underrepresented at TJ, they have a much better shot at getting in without prep. Equity admissions hits different depending on where you sit. And that’s the straight talk. [/quote]
