[quote=Anonymous]OP - as a former (many years ago, finished in 1987) Haycock GT student, I think you're right to consider the academic elitism issue. Of course, a lifetime has gone by since I went there, so things could be totally different, but that "you're the best, you're better than they are" attitude was very prevalent when I went to school there. I didn't realize it until many many years later when I left the GT track (although I got in, I opted to go to McLean instead of TJ - I decided I wasn't enough of a science person) and realized we were kind of all growing up to be intellectual snobs and a-holes and a large part of it was the "you are the BEST EVER" attitude that we were getting from teachers.[/quote]
