[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] For those “exceptional” students that did not get accepted into TJ because of the new admission, they should still do well at their schools and perform well on the PSAT. Therefore, the total number of NMSF in FCPS should stay the same. If the "TOTAL" NMSF in FCPS went down, what does it has to do with TJ? [/quote] Perhaps there is unique value in a TJ education for those kids, pushing kids who would otherwise not make the NMSF cut to make it? As a TJ grad I thought the education was a difference-maker in my life. I would not have come out with the same knowledge or study skills without it.[/quote] Peer groups matter, and the peer group at TJ is now demonstrably weaker. There is both less raw talent and less motivation to excel. [/quote]
