[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid at a top private (known for its rigor) didn’t go beyond Calc BC but is thriving in college in a STEM field. I was worried for a while that they didn’t have the advanced math classes that some publics have, but being incredibly well prepared given the classes they could take has been great for our kid. [/quote] I was going to say that I seem similar things. The private schools are usually good at helping students learn how to learn. Private school alumni sometimes end up in fantastic grad schools in hard sciences and math. TJ parents may think those kids were dumb if they ended up at Pomona, Williams or Swarthmore or even Wooster or Lawrence, but a lot of grads from those small colleges end up doing well in STEM.
