[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted below on the other forum. Pasting below. While it is true that the essay is very simple, what I heard is it’s not the correct answer (I believe 80-90% of kids will get that) but any out of the box, unique assumptions that you can add. It will make it stand out, even though it may not have the correct answer. Source is a friend whose kid got admitted last year. They had the question on punnet squares. Her kid fumbled at the answer but came up wit a story and really unique reasoning and got in. Their friends who wrote the correct answer were not admitted[/quote] That actually makes things worse. Which kids are likely to simply answer the question as asked? The regular, un-prepped kids applying to TJ. Who is likely to add extra commentary? The kids taking Curie or other TJ prep classes which will teach them to look for anything extra to add to their otherwise very simple answers to a very simple problem. [/quote]
