[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You are an idiot. No one is talking about any other MS except LJMS and TMS. When comparing the "aap" at TMS vs the aap center at LJMS, LJ does better hands down. Again, these are the only schools being discussed on this particular thread. Let's keep it as such. [/quote]

Actually, you're an idiot if you think touting LJ's poor record (for an AAP Center) of placing kids into TJ is very relevant to anyone trying to decide between these two middle schools. But please go on, it's actually quite amusing! [/quote]

Jackson has a poor record compared to Carson.  But still a decent record.  38 semifinalists last year, 11 admits, slightly fewer than LBSS, the same as Twain.  Better than some AAP Centers (like Hughes). Thoreau, on the other hand, had 10 semifinalists and fewer than 5 admits (too small to report). So yes, Carson may be the best choice, but if you are zoned for Jackson/Thoreau, and have a kid who is interested in TJ (which is a big if)  Jackson is the better choice. [/quote]
