[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Not OP - but do colleges regard a B at TJ as something equivalent to a A at a non TJ HS? I think they would prefer a mostly A's student from a regular HS to a mostly B's student from TJ - assuming the same courses are taken[/quote] No they consider a B a B[/quote] I doubt it. If it's known that a school is rigorous and full of high achievers, a B means something different in that context vs a school of mostly underachievers. [/quote] UVA takes students from area high schools like McLean with a GPA>4.4, and the cutoff is not much different for TJ students even though the program is more rigorous at TJ. So a B is a B. It is what it is and I am a parent of a Senior at TJ. To OP: if your kid is willing to go back to the base school, it is likely a better option for college admission. [/quote]
