[quote=Anonymous]Posted this on another thread, but the one significant change that you're going to see is in the level of incoming advancement in math for the new freshmen class. They'll be every bit as INTELLIGENT, MOTIVATED, and CAPABLE - they just won't be walking in ready to take Pre-Calc, BC, and beyond on Day 1. Advancement in math does not necessarily indicate interest, intelligence, or aptitude for STEM - what it indicates is usually opportunity and parental ambition. This will happen because the admissions process will no longer self-select for students who are this far advanced in math, in part because it does not rely on an exam that significantly favors students who have been exposed to concepts of logic and spatial thinking that are heavily emphasized in a traditional Honors Geometry course. So you won't see TJ being any less rigorous - you'll just see it slightly less advanced from a pure math perspective.[/quote]
