[quote=Anonymous]Someone at TJ would be top 10% at any other public high school in Fairfax County The admissions rate to an elite school is the same in either case Therfore people going to TJ just for a legup on college admissions is dumb The whole premise of asking if TJ is worth it is dumb too. Thats not the question you should be asking. The question should only ever be is the child gifted AND interested in a STEM subject Prior poster I agree with your general dsecription Colleges have all sorts of targets Say 5 people from TJ and 5 people from other districts in Fairfax County (Point being form above no matter where you go to school if you are good enough you will be one of those 10 people assuming 50% decided to go TJ and 50% decided to stay in their home school) They have a category for "non target high schools" as well [/quote]
