[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It will confer confidence and open doors like no other school in this region can.  It is a valuable badge to have in the wallet for a lifetime.

My TJ diploma hasn't been relevant since I was admitted to college. The contacts that have helped me in my career came from college, grad school and beyond.[/quote]

[b]And, had it really helped you getting into college?  If you were top 5 at your base school, would you have done just as well?[/b]

There are kids that will benefit from TJ -- those are the kids that appear to be struggling, because they are getting A's on all the tests but 0's on the HW....they usually Ace the standardized tests, but don't see the point of doing problems just for the sake of doing problems....once they get it, they get it. They will work really hard until they understand the problem....but once they do, they stop.  Albert Einstein was like this.  As was Richard Feynmen. But, those kids will not be admitted to TJ....

The answer is yes. Absolutely. Top 5 will get picked up quicker than middle of pack TJ kid for sure. Colleges want kids from all HS. [/quote]
