[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would encourage your child to read and let him pursue whatever interests him. Have him participate in extra curricular activities which reflect his interest in science, technology or math. You should not have to enroll him in any programs to prepare him for the test. My son is graduating this year from TJ and he did not do anything extra to prepare for the entrance test. [/quote] Good advice here. My child, a TJ student, also did not do any TJ test prep other than reading the information on the TJ admissions site. The test is not that hard for a good student. It also helps to get good grades- my child earned straight A's for all of seventh and eighth grades. For extracurriculars, my child played a team sport which required 2-3 hours after school each day and weekend time, too. I think the sport participation showed the ability to commit a lot of time to an out of school passion and still do well in academics. [/quote]
