[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]U Chicago takes a ton of private school kids.
They have a direct relationship with many private schools to absorb many of their strong but tier 2 students. They don’t care about poor or middle class kids at all [/quote]

I wouldn't call them tier 2 students.  They tend to be high-stats unhooked kids.  4.0 and 1,600 is not tier 2. [/quote]
Actually only tier 3, 4 students go to U Chicago. At least that has been the case with TJ.[/quote]

I thank TJ kills many bright teenagers’ future by focusing on science and technology so early in life and by working them too hard.

I agree, though, that the “best” TJ students go to top 5, most tier 2 go to other Ivies or Berkeley, etc. Most TJ students probably do not like UChicago because of the Core. Their writing and humanities cannot compare to top private school kids. The number of TJ students going to Ivies went down greatly in recent years, but UChicago is taking over 10 students from TJ recently. Some of these students are tier 2. [/quote]

How many tiers are you dividing the students into? 100? Why not say tier 1 goes to no.1 school, tier 2 goes to no.2 school? What does tier actually mean?[/quote]

Just someone spoiling for a fight I think[/quote]
