[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Will put kid in good stead for college. Everyone in my incoming MIT class expected to be in the top half of the class. This was asked at orientation. "Raise your hand if you expect to be in the top half..". Most everyone raised their hand. Speaker said, "Look around. Think about that," People sheepishly started lowering their hands..[/quote] College is different. My kid went through Stuyvesant HS half asleep. Boy, was he humbled by the math department at UChicago. [/quote] I hate to be arrogant, but this is not a thing that happens coming from TJ. The only schools where TJ kids generally find things more difficult than high school are MIT and Caltech. Otherwise, kids almost universally report that things are MUCH easier in college than at TJ [/quote] You're confusing floors and ceilings. The previous poster was not referring to the easiest math courses at UChicago.[/quote]
