[quote=Anonymous]Go to TJ if you are Asian American. You will find it hard to get into top colleges from base HS even if you are top performers anywhere. My kid had perfect grades, SATs, APs, ECs, research paper performance from a magnet school. He was top 1% in HS. Going to a TJ type of school for HS was amazing for him. Did not get into the top schools but got into a good enough school with merit aid. College, internships and job offers came easy to him. So, going to best HS is amazing. You are also cultivating a cohort of high achievers in HS who will be going to top colleges - even if you are not. These are your future network. [/quote]
