[quote=Anonymous]Thank you PP again for extending your hand. I'm the poster from 06/12, and both my son and I would love to get in touch with you. Please email <ParallelLines2003 AT gmail DOT com> For the poster who asked "is there anything DC should do in preparation for TJ/AOS", some suggestions (summary from prev posts): look at the Admission PPT/selection criteria at TJ/AOS site. Don't just look at "first cut" criteria, look at "2nd cut" criteria also since that's where the real competition is. GPA and test scores (TJ test/PSAT) are important but are just a part of the game. Writing skills, STEM activities, Teacher Recs, etc. are NOT overnight things. Someone also asked about AOS stat/profile to compare with TJ. AOS site actually has some data. Their latest Admission PPT has Alumni Data (Engr: 24%, CS: 20%, PreMed: 17%). AOS School profile has some stats incl. College Acceptance. https://www.lcps.org/cms/lib/VA01000195/Centricity/Domain/17419/AOS%20PROFILE%202016-17.pdf [/quote]
