[quote=Anonymous]It depends on the school you come from. And there [b]definitely ARE Quotas in this area[/b], again despite what Dean J and UVA say. Again, OP here - not bitter and it was very recent. [b]This thread was just to open the eyes of anyone who thinks that harder classes at TJ, having a solid, "well-rounded" kid who spends hours at an EC activity year-round or being a legacy makes a difference.[/b] My student is having a great time where he/she is. And my apologies if anyone thought that I was implying that most kids from other schools that go to UVA struggle - I was just repeating what someone else (non-TJ parent) has told me many times - about a few kids. I know many students that have done well. (The bottom line with TJ is that when you press the button to attend TJ, you know your chances of college admissions decrease unless you are in the top 10% or so of your graduating class.)[/quote]
