[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If everyone made their decision based on my being in the top 5% or not, TJ would be very small. If you think your child will thrive at TJ, and that might not mean straight A's, then let them go. If you think your child will be challenged and that being in school with a lot of other really smart kids that will push them, then TJ will be good for them. Plenty of people do well in life with degrees from schools that are are not in the top 10, or 25, or 50, or even 100. -Signed a parent of a TJ applicant who attended a college none of you know, earned a PhD, and is doing well in life[/quote] My wife went to Mary Washington College (as it was known back in the day) and went on to be a Mayo Clinic/Johns Hopkins trained transplant surgeon. There's more to life than college admissions.[/quote]
