[quote=Anonymous][quote=donalan]Since this thread was started the ethnic disparity at TJ is greater than ever. Over 70% Asian student population or 3 times the general population. Ive got a kid that is a semifinalist and Im worried cause he took no prep and we didnt pay anyone to tell us how to game the system.[/quote] It's definitely a crapshoot and there are no guarantees. My son wanted to go to TJ from the time he knew it existed and was completely self-driven. All his activities were STEM-oriented because that's what he loved, he easily aced the test, had great grades and teachers who were pulling for him and was still rejected. He was devastated but went on to do great things at his local high school and got into a top college that rejected some of his TJ friends. As trite as it sounds, it does all work out. [/quote]
