[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This just proves to me that [b]elite college acceptance is a crap shoot these days[/b]

Look at the acceptance rates for the top 10 schools they are all around 10% or less that's nuts

I bet the people that did get accepted got multiple schools so the reality is even at TJ the chance of you getting into an elite top 10 school is 5% or less which is crazy

I don't want to derail the thread but anyone thinking TJ has a leg up on college admissions this shows otherwise.[/quote]

This assumes that all TJ students apply to elite schools.  If TJ is anything like Blair, I'm guessing that's not the case.  Many donut hole families don't apply because they cannot afford to send their qualified kids there.[/quote]

Roughly 1/3 of TJ's graduating class is staying in state at UVA, VaTech and William & Mary.[/quote]

Also, roughly 1/3 of TJ's grads applied to Cornell.[/quote]

Roughly 1/3 of TJ grads were rejected by UVA.[/quote]
