[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The inconvenient truth is that elite STEM high schools in this country don't compel their top students to take AB and BC as a sequence. That's not the way things work at TJ in Fairfax, Bronx Science, Brooklyn Tech, Talented and Gifted Dallas, top privates like Andover and Exeter etc. BASIS isn't a franchise run by educators, which sometimes shows. And they wonder why they don't get more than 1 or 2 grads to Ivies and elite tech programs like MIT and Cal Tech annually. [/quote] BASIS is not an elite STEM high school like the list of schools you provided. A kid destined for the Ivies or MIT is not going to be stopped because they took the AB the BC calculus sequence at BASIS. Come back and complain / criticize once BASIS becomes a top test in HS. Till then, please stop criticizing it. [/quote]
