[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don’t understand why TJ parents (not kids) are so insufferable. Their kids get a great education at TJ and many - actually, the vast majority - get great college admits and merit aid, yet they are some of the most angry parents about their kid’s results. Instead of celebrating their kid’s achievements, they rant about discrimination, put down base schools, and belittle the state’s best colleges. Why is that necessary? They seem incredibly entitled and ungrateful. [/quote] Because TJ’s test scores tell them that the entire TJ class should be admitted to Harvard and/or MIT. Anything less is a failure. Despite being “smart,” they cannot comprehend that there are other smart people in the world competing for the same slots and that these two colleges do not want to give all their CS slots to one high school.
