[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird that it bothers you. [b] My kid is not going to TJ for college reasons. She is going to TJ because she loves math and science and wants to be surrounded by hard-working, academic minded peers.[/b] We couldn't afford out of state and are not interested in her burdening herself with loans for that. Out in-state schools are great. College has gotten prohibitively expensive and people aren't going to really apply where they cannot afford to pay.[/quote] NP here. IMO this should be the only reason a kid chooses to go to TJ. As a magnet school it was designed for students who want to go deeply into math and science and care more about learning for learning's sake. Amassing a really good resume for college can be and sometimes is a side benefit, but this shouldn't be the main reason a kid chooses to go there. [/quote]
