[quote=Anonymous]On a related note, what are the statistics on TJ graduates (a) going to the top 10 colleges such as MIT, Stanford, Berkeley, Carnegie Mellon, and the like, in fields such as science and engineering, (b) later on pursuing advanced degrees such as Masters or Ph.D. in science and engineering from top 10 schools, and (c) making it to top positions in professional careers (successful entrepreneurs of the kind in Silicon Valley, CEO's, CTO's of fortune 500 companies, well known professors in academia, top scientists or engineers in our national laboratories, and the like)?

I'd also be interested in the same statistic for the FCPS AAP, that seems to be so sought after. How many of the TJ or AAP grads are really creative or out of the box thinkers and achievers in their higher education or professional careers?

Most of what I have seen are TJ grads going to William and Mary, GMU, and UVa and the like. No offense to these schools, but they are not in the same league as the top schools, and for a high school and a school district that touts to be one of the top in the nation, i'd think that the product of the system needs to be sought after by the best and brightest institutions and organizations in the country.[/quote]
