[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do they determine the top 1.5% from a middle school anyway? So many kids have a 4.0[/quote] It will not simply be based on GPA. It will be a largely subjective assessment about who they like the most for TJ. If they were upset about the test prep firms before, just wait until those firms reverse engineer what makes a TJ applicant most likable. [/quote] Exactly. How will people trust the committee who admits the kids? Where will be the oversight there?[/quote] They are just setting themselves up for more litigation when it’s discovered that the “holistic reviewers” are particularly inclined to find that Asian applicants lack that “special spark” that warrants admission to TJ - which is the exact conclusion that all the reporting requirements and diversity “goals” will incentivize the reviewers to reach.
