[quote=Anonymous]Pp here. I attended a magnet school similar to TJ when I was younger. This was long before the internet. I heard about the magnet school from a friend from church. I had to call the school, get the forms mailed to my house, get recommendations and write my essays. My parents didn’t help. This is why I don’t buy that all Asian kids at TJ are all pushed and prepped by their parents. Many Asian students have first generation immigrant Asian parents. DH and I worked hard and now have a seven figure income. I fear my kids won’t be as motivated despite having everything at their disposal. They are well adjusted smart kids. Not sure how motivated they are. However, we are surrounded by well educated successful parents so to them, business owners, law firm partners, physicians and executives are the norm so the bar is high for them.[/quote]
