[quote=Anonymous]Colleges know what math/science path students from TJ are on based on transcripts. Top schools are not looking for TJ students who are on the same path or lower path than base school students. If your kids was accepted and is currently in Algebra I they should take Honors Geometry over the summer so that they will not be in the group of lowest rigor students. If a student maxes out at Calculus AB they are not on track for any top 50 stem schools. TJ doesn’t recommend compacted Geometry over the summer, but the truth is the majority of students on higher math tracks were either at elementary schools that offered Algebra I or they took Geometry over the summer to get ahead. Any student who can’t handle Geometry over summer is going to struggle at TJ where the math classes are considerably harder than at base school. Most students who don’t have the grades to stay at TJ are the lower math track kids.[/quote]
