[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]College admissions is not as good from TJ.[/quote] College admissions committees know which kids are advanced and taking the most rigorous courses at TJ. Any student who needs to take a credit recovery course over the summer for math will be at a major disadvantage as the colleges will know this. If your student will be in the top 10-25% of students they will likely have better college outcomes (although not guaranteed). Just going to TJ won’t give any students an advantage in college admissions. Students need to take a lot of AP courses to be in the top 25% of their class. Students also need to take part in clubs and leadership positions for an advantage to getting into college. If a student won’t have time to participate meaningful in clubs/sports teams/leadership positions due to the academic rigor of TJ their college admissions decisions will be negatively affected.[/quote]
