[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Some also claim that TJ is biased against Asians even though they're the most well-represented demographic. [/quote] The rule changes caused a 20% drop in the number of Asians in the TJ freshman class, and it mirrors a nationwide movement to reduce the number of Asians in magnet schools. NYC, San Francisco, Philadelphia, Boston, and MCPS all did the same. NYC is notable in that the Asians are poor, and the URMs there have other pathways to success. But they did it anyway. At some point you take the hint.[/quote] The hint being that Asians are not allowed to have a majority.[/quote] Fixed it for you.[/quote] At TJ Asians are the majority. But do Asians want to be the majority? It's harder to stand out that way.[/quote]
