[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are going to be a lot families that wasted their money over the past year on these courses when they find out that the admissions process is changing. It just goes to show you what a sucker bet these test prep companies are.

There is no way that TJ Admissions can administer an exam for the class of 2025. They won't be able to do it in person because of covid, and they won't be able to do it online because of cheating. In a way, CurieGate is going to end up contributing to a perfect storm that results in lasting change to the TJ admissions nightmare.[/quote]

I really hope this is the case.  Academic integrity is something that is missing in the current student body.  [/quote]

As a current TJ family, this is very offensive to bring down the entire current student body like this. Our family has academic integrity, as most TJ families probably have. There might be some cheaters in the bunch, but that does not make all of us cheaters. How would you like to be called a cheater just because someone around you is a cheater?![/quote]

TJ families are far too accepting of the cheating that goes on within the school building. Which is inexplicable because it directly impacts their students' ability to get into top schools.

Essentially there are four options:
1) Your family is a cheating family
2) Your family accepts cheating by others
3) Your family has its head in the sand
4) Your family is actively taking steps to address cheating by others[/quote]

TJ families do not have much choice in the cheating matter. Since such a high number and percentage of the students cheat (and their parents either don’t know or don’t care) it’s either sink or cheat. Of course there are a few who don’t cheat. That’s the minority. The majority cheat. Saying that cheating happens at any school doesn’t change that at TJ it’s rampant and accepted. TJ has an ugly culture that dies need reform. Not going to happen though.
