[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]https://www.fcps.edu/news/tjhsst-student-named-finalist-2025-regeneron-science-talent-search Eight Top 300 finalists this year as opposed to seven last year. But I thought that the new admissions process was leaving top talent behind? No other FCPS school produced a top 300 finalist this year...[/quote] It's been clear from the beginning that this class was selected based on ability instead of prep. THey will continue to shine. Their college outcomes will be one of the best on record and TJ will soon be back at #1.[/quote] Did they happen to be selected out of pure luck? Nothing about the selection process selects for ability except the self-selection process that creates the applicant pool in the first place.[/quote] No, they select the very top students from each school. They use merit now, but in the past, they were admitting students from wealthy feeders who had early access to the admissions test.[/quote] Please explain how the essays ensure the very top are selected?
