[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Weird that it bothers you. [b] My kid is not going to TJ for college reasons.  She is going to TJ because she loves math and science and wants to be surrounded by hard-working, academic minded peers.[/b]

We couldn't afford out of state and are not interested in her burdening herself with loans for that.  Out in-state schools are great.

College has gotten prohibitively expensive and people aren't going to really apply where they cannot afford to pay.[/quote]

NP here.  IMO this should be the only reason a kid chooses to go to TJ.  As a magnet school it was designed for students who want to go deeply into math and science and care more about learning for learning's sake.  Amassing a really good resume for college can be and sometimes is a side benefit, but this shouldn't be the main reason a kid chooses to go there.  [/quote]

You must be on drugs.. More than half of asians(indians and chinese students) are forced by parents, prepped, to boost their egos  to get into TJ.. Nothing to do with science or math.

I can say probably 200 or so out of 480 could be serious math and science fanatics..  [/quote]
