[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, not sure why you are telling is what to do or how to feel?

This is a seriously flawed proposal with key details missing.  No one has explained what factors are considered before placing someone in the lottery pool other than 3.5 GPA.  They allude to an essay but gave no information about its impact on being placed in the pool. Are they considering other factors to be in the pool?  Race?

It’s pretty shocking that you claim to be a TJ parent and are fine with this proposal that is pretty much a totally secret arrangement.[/quote]

Why do people insist on leaving off a 3.5 GPA and completing Algebra 1 by the end of eighth grade. It is not fully clear if the kids will need to get letters of recommendation or not. It would be better if they laid out what the exact process would look like but they have already posted two major requirements which will greatly reduce the number of kids who are eligible. [/quote]

Dude, you seriously just described every second idiot who went to my high school in Kentucky. Everybody had a 3.5 and half of them took Algebra by the 8th grade. I guess half of Kentucky should be in the TJ lottery! Man this. school is going to crash and burn so hard.[/quote]
