[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the message Algebra 1 students who decline TJ are sending is just that they decided not to attend TJ. [/quote] Bottom-tier middle school students are being coerced and incentivized with extra credit to submit TJ application, just to artificially inflate the application numbers somewhat and use them to justify the couple of hundred Algebra 1 offers. However, the acceptance rate for the algebra 1 offers is significantly low compared to offers extended to students with higher math who apply from top middle schools. Admissions are being balanced racially by using lower math of Algebra 1 as the criterion. Ever since the admissions change, FCPS is not revealing the number of applicants by middle school or by ethnic race, which was historically presented as basic information in initial news release.
