[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TJ is overrated anyway.  The best school around is Basis in McLean.[/quote]

What makes you come to that conclusion? Do they beat TJ in all of the Math, Academic, and Science completions?[/quote]

It's where his kids go.
If you want to pay $30K a year to go to a good school, then BASIS can be a good option if Potomac won't take you.

TJ will probably remain the best school in virginia even with the dilution of student talent under the new admissions process.  
It wasn't close before, it is a lot closer now.[/quote]

BASIS is an excellent school at the high school level - probably the closest thing to TJ in terms of course offerings. If your kid and family were dead set on going to TJ but didn't get in, and you have the resources for private school, BASIS is probably your best option.

But it doesn't hold a candle to TJ - nor does any school in this area - because of the equipment in TJ's labs... even just for regular bio, chem, and design and tech courses.[/quote]
