[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We had a prep for prep tour guide for HS at a TT school. Along with a kid who had been there since K. Kid who was there since K was fine - very pleasant, probably not going to HYPS unless super connected but will do fine in life. If you met them on the street you wouldn't guess they went to a TT but not dumb either. Prep for Prep kid was really impressive - smart, funny, comfortable in their own skin. I think they had applied ED to MIT but don't recall (it was a few years ago). Again - generalizations get you nowhere.[/quote] This is interesting to me, b/c all the young Trinity alumni I've met (4-5) have been pleasant, well-mannered, and... sort of mild? I am sure there are some brilliants minds behind the manners, but they sure don't let on, at least not to a casual acquaintance. Comparing to e.g. Bronx Science open house experience, where there was a lot of cheeky humor, ironic self-awareness and kind of intense "cool nerd" energy. Trinity -- mostly polish. Yeah, generalization, I know.[/quote]
