[quote=Anonymous]The academic environment is tougher at TJ than in AP classes at the base schools. That is enough for me to want my kid at TJ. As far as "lying" about an interest in STEM, frankly I don't think kids in 8th grade should have already decided the academic path that they are likely to pursue. My DD "lied" about her interest but got in. Surprising to me, she seems interested in math and sciences and is doing well. I can't say I blame her for "lying" because that is what is required: it's simply marketing. [/quote]
