[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]Most of TJ kids can't get into Blair/RMIB [/b]and if they do, they won't last. Class by itself, yeah, sure. [/quote] Blair and RM are about 1 in 8 to 1 in 10. TJ is only 1 in 6 so TJ is easier to get in. Also, Blair/RM select only 100 kids each so much more selective than TJ. [/quote] How many students apply and how many are selected alone does not determine the rigor of the program. For example, Cooper Union's admission rate is 7.7%, Alice Lloyd College's admission rate is 9.4%, Rust College's admission rate is 13.8% etc. Many potential applicants are scared off by the "rigor" of TJ since they are trying to obtain at least 4.3 or higher GPA to get into UVA or other top colleges and it is not easy to get and maintain 4.35 or above GPA at TJ.[/quote]
