[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does Geometry in Summer give an edge for TJ applicants?[/quote] Our MS (which sends a ton of kids to TJ) says it has the opposite effect. TJ has been getting burned by kids who do this, and then end up needing remediation. Then people get upset that 1/3 of the TJ kids need math remediation, and there are newspaper articles about how the TJ admissions process is broken. Our MS TJ admissions liaison says that TJ Reps have asked her to discourage summer school geometry (and 6th grade Algebra II) Counselor also says that 8th grade Algebra II students do not have an edge over 8th grade geometry students.
