[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TJ is really hard. Only the ones with ‘natural’ smarts should go here.

rest all just struggle[/quote]

Natural smarts ... hmm how do you identify that in ES/MS? all the kids who get into TJ are smart, you only find after the fact whether someone will excel at top 10%, 25%, 50%, or bottom half. Some cheat too, does that count as 'smarts'? Then some others do not know how to cheat, does that count as not 'smart'?

There is a lot in between, TJ is hard, it comes down to mental maturity of the kids to handle it before they have the college level age maturity.[/quote]

Counting cheating as smarts is unethical. I hope my nuero-surgeon didn’t cheat on his medical tests. 
I know there is cheating by some parents to get into TJ, do well in TJ, and go to a top school. There is a certain group of parents at TJ that figure if they are “smart” enough to cheat & get ahead , it just shows you were stupid. Some TJ parents pay over $100K for “help” for their kid’s college applications. [/quote]

Getting extra time in timed exams by paying for a diagnosis is cheating.  [/quote]
