[quote=Anonymous]Most of the kids are interested in STEM when they apply in 8th grade, when they are 13 or 14 years old. Some find passions for other subjects in the course of their high school years. I've known of a few TJ kids who have developed a love for Latin and ancient history while at TJ and gone on to be classics majors in college. Kids change a lot during their teen years:just because a kid loves STEM as an 8th grader doesn't mean that he will feel the same three or four years later. These are really smart and talented kids. It stands to reason that they will be good at many of the subjects they are exposed to during high school and that they will have many varied interests. More than 70% of college freshman change their majors. If 18 year olds can discover new passions, it is even more likely that a 13 year old will.[/quote]
