[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Nope! I have a TJ grad (graduated in the past five years) at a T10. A large part of this result I, and they, believe is due to motivation by peer group and access to special opportunities (landing internships w/ TJ name, doing research/projects with other motivated and smart TJ kids). If they went to base would likely not have done as much in HS or gone somewhere as good.[/quote] My kid is heading to an ivy, from FCPS unhooked, in the fall. Why do you believe your last sentence?[/quote] DP How many students from your base school are going to ivy unhooked? TJ sends 50-100 students to Ivy+ and another 50-100 to UVA. The UVA kids might have had the same results at their base school but the ivy+ kids likely would not. More TJ kids go to ivy+ than the rest of FCPS combined.[/quote]
