[quote=Anonymous]Again, everyone…Just saying… You can have crazy high scores and end up astonished that your kid did NOT get in. If you are in a very high income area, and also a more renowned CENTER school, it’s much more competitive. My kid didn’t get in until 5th. But on the other hand, level III and advanced math was good too! But yes, was too easy for him. He didn’t complain…I mean, more time to chill and play video games, sports, etc right?? But he breezed through everything. This is the first time I have seen him enjoying his school work (and not just enjoying his friends at school) and being more challenged. He really likes the extra challenge and is doing fantastic with the same grades he got before AAP (mostly 4s.) So i guess it was a good thing for him. But again, I was shocked when he didn’t get in for two years despite the great scores, GBRS etc. Last year, i had zero expectation and just applied on a whim like “why not, right? WIll likely get rejected again” but got in. So please parents, do NOT be disheartened if your kid doesn’t get in. I know many of my child’s very smart friends who did not get in and are great in level III and advanced math. It’s honestly not going to matter a whole lot unless you REALLY want to go to TJ eventually. I would say try your best for advanced math, though. Math is important if you reapply. [/quote]
