[quote=Anonymous]These prep classes are not a necessity for a kid to do well on the test. The TJ test is not that difficult for a bright eighth grader. There are sample questions on the TJ website that allow a child to get an idea of the types of questions and the directions. Many people were concerned a few years ago that it was over-prepping that led to some kids having problems with the math classes at TJ. Kids were taught how to do enough math to answer the questions on the test, but they apparently did not really understand the concepts and reasoning behind what they were doing. A kid who has to spend a lot of time prepping for the test might find that the work is overwhelming when he or she actually begins classes at TJ. [/quote]
