[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think TJ can boost your college profile, someone successful at TJ would be just as successful at their base school.

The differentiating value of TJ is the peer group and [b]networking that does happen. [/b] A significant downside is the commute for those that aren't nearby.

The TJ brand does continue into adulthood at least in Northern Virginia.  It's not going to get you a job or anything, but everyone knows what TJ is.

I think you overestimate the "networking" that is going on with high school kids.  It's called friendship.  [/quote]

When bright kids get together, they thrive off one another, push each other, and collaborate with each other.  There is also a connection among alumni that can provide dividends down the road professionally.

And yes, they also make friends with each other.[/quote]

+1 I've known many TJ graduates and they are connected as any other high school grads are connected. [b]In college is where real networking takes off.[/b]

Exactly.  And it's parents that think they have to get their kids into TJ for "networking" who are part of the problem with that school. [/quote]

:D  I'm not sure how we have any successful people from other parts of the country.  [/quote]

Lol![/quote]
