[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They only confuse Harvard Princeton and MIT??? This is so dumb.  (It’s also a huge east coat bias by not using Stanford and/or caltech.)  The problem is that by having such a small number there are a of weird swings and lack of differentiation.  I pulled up my whole state and basically all the good schools had 2-3 admits to those 3 schools, so the difference between first in the state and 15th in the state was one kid.  [/quote]

Also it would be nice to know how many of the Harvard and Princeton were athletic recruits.

From TJ, I don’t think any since 2015. They only have 5-6 a year.  And recently a kid was an MIT recruit. But I haven’t seen any Harvard or Princeton.

And for people griping, realize almost all of the TJ admits are completely unhooked.  95% of TJ is white or Asian, it’s 1% FARMS and it’s mostly first. Gen.  Americans.  Very few legacies.  Stuy kids do have demographics working for them. Exeter and the other boarding schools have legacies. [/quote]
