[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Yep. If you want to get into an Ivy/MIT better be in the top 10-15 percent at TJ. Your kid would easily be that at their base school. That’s the TJ fine print. College admissions competition is much much tougher, but you learn a ton and have great opportunities to see what you want to do in STEM. My kid fared much worse than she would have at her base school. But she learned much much more and she will find freshman college to be very easy, I suspect. [/quote] Top 10-15 percent at regular public high school does not get you into an Ivy.[/quote] But they do at a private feeder. And top 25% at private is also getting into T20. Usually it's more.[/quote] Is that because the feeder is good or because the feeder takes kids who are athletes, donors, etc.?[/quote]
