[quote=Anonymous]The whole point of this thread is to address the question, "does TJ help with college admissions"? I have present data reported from the Naviance page showing where kids like my daughter were admitted. My daughter is a good student, mostly A's with an occaisional B and decent PSAT scores (not a NMSF). But she did not take any prep course for the PSAT. She will for the SAT, mostly to get more familitiar with strategies for the test. The answer was a kid like my daughter probably would have no benefit at TJ for college admissions. She is probably in the top 10% (school does not rank) of her school. Definitely the top 15%. My point was that someone like my daughter: top 15% at a better school -- and madision is a better school, has a 45% chance at UVA, 73% chance at W & M, and near certainty at Va Tech (not seperating engineering). And they have about a 5-10% chance of getting into an elite. These numbers are not much different from TJ overall. [/quote]
