[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]look AAP has the smartest kids. Folks in AAP should continue to get in vs random kids from other schools The real focus should be on AAP and making sure there are more URM getting in there vs pushing parents getting their smart but not gifted kids in there. Trying to do it during TJ admissions is too late and unfair to folks in AAP who again are most deserving of the spots.[/quote] AAP kids still are FAR outpacing kids in Gen Ed in getting into TJ. What the new system is doing is allowing kids who for whatever reason aren't in AAP but still are high-performing a shot to get into the school. There are a lot of reasons that kids aren't in AAP centers that go beyond "not being smart enough".[/quote]
