[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both my spouse and their sibling are TJ alums and neither will allow their kids to attend. Because of the “pressure cooker” aspect. [/quote] Why is having more rigorous classes and demanding teachers now deemed "pressure cooker" ? If a kid loves math and science, TJ is like a dream school.[/quote] The pressure cooker aspect comes not from rigorous coursework or demanding teachers, but an environment where less than perfection is considered a failure. [/quote] That pressure is only self induced from students or parents, not the school or teachers. Same student would feel pressure at any school. Also, TJ alumni don't always have children who are as motivated or intelligent in STEM as they were. [/quote]
