The % of Asians is still overwhelming high while URMs are still quite low. They can and should fix the AAP va base center issue but I like the new angle of a certain minimum # of slots for each MS. Even with that attendees are heavily concentrated in certain areas but this helps spread it out a bit at least [/quote] bingo. won't rest till we can teach those uppity asians a lesson. [/quote] yep. we won't do the work. let's just accuse them of cheating. just say we can't devise any objective test - because we know we can't do well there and just try to spin things over and over. if nothing else works we will just try to close to close the school. bingo it is. [/quote] Laughable. What happened happened. Denying it or diminishing its importance doesn’t help your cause. Repeating it just makes you look uninformed, out of touch, and driven by an indefensible agenda. Stuff like this is why Harry and Asra and the failed “we keep winning” Coalition against TJ keeps losing.[/quote] You lie again. Judge said FCPS was racist. Now it is under appeal. [/quote] The point of the lawsuit was to change the admissions process. The Fourth Circuit and the Supreme Court both permitted it to continue for 2026, and the Fourth Circuit explicitly rejected Hilton’s reasoning in Judge Heytens’ opinion concurring with the appeal. That was a big fat L. And now Harry’s getting raked over the coals because he showed his whole arse in laughing at that kid doing the anthem at the SB meeting. Probably torpedoed what little chance he had of being electable. Since I know he stalks these boards, I look forward to his response in 3….2…[/quote] #fakernews FCPS lost at the district court level. They filed and appeal to the Fourth Circuit and asked for a stay pending the decision on appeal. The Fourth Circuit granted the stay and the Supreme Court allowed the stay to remain. The appeal gets argued on September 16. So I'm not sure how you characterize this as a big fat L. You are probably another one of the those hack, arm chair lawyers that assured us the Coalition didn't have standing in the first place, would lose immediately, had no case, etc. [/quote] The Class of 2026 got selected and seated as planned, and as of right now there is absolutely no reason to expect that the Class of 2027 won't be seated in the same manner. The Coalition doesn't even have named complainants anymore because they were both (remember, there were only two) eligible for the Class of 2026. Does anyone even know if those kids were admitted? BIG FAT L. But keep playing - you're doing great so far!![/quote] What kind of ass clown calls a 2-1 decision on a stay order a big fat l? [/quote] Someone who prefers winning to name calling. The opinion agrees that FCPS is likely to succeed on appeal. The Coalition is literally going to take a case to the Supreme Court with no names plaintiffs. If PLF even continues to do losing work pro bono.[/quote] Unfortunate that you losers had to go this route. "In an illegal effort to align TJ’s student body with the racial composition of the surrounding region, TJ abandoned its previous merit-based admissions system and adopted a new system designed to reduce dramatically the number of Asian-American students who attend TJ."[/quote] Not sure how why you'd call a system where the wealthy buy test answers merit based.[/quote] Not a single kid has ever been admitted to TJ because they bought test answers. In theory, if a kid bought the test answers and got a perfect score on the test, they would not have had the grades, teacher recommendations, essays, achievements and so on to get selected through the holistic process. [/quote] Curie said they placed [b]over a third[/b] of the entering class that same year that many claimed they had seen questions in advance. [/quote] Citation for that? Over a third? If you're incapable of the most basic math, you really should stop posting. Anyway, Curie had 133 kids get offers. There are more than 399 kids in the TJ class, so it's not "over a third." It's actually going to be less than that since numerous TJ slots were double counted for the kids who declined TJ admission in favor of AOS/AET. Even if Curie placed too many kids, that doesn't prove that they "bought the test answers." It shows that a substantial portion of Loudoun and Western Fairfax South Asian children have the grades, teacher recommendations, achievements, and essays to earn an admission offer in the holistic process. Kids never have been admitted to TJ with perfect test scores and nothing else to show for it. It is not entirely surprising to have so many Curie kids get admitted, since the South Asians in that area generally have advanced degrees in STEM. It's also not surprising that Curie kids will net most of the 90 or so LCPS slots, since the Venn diagram of kids in Loudoun who even want to commute all the way to TJ, Upper Middle Class South Asians, and Kids attending Curie is pretty much one single circle.
