Oh the imaginary race based admissions again. TJ admissions are race-blind. Further, the majority of the county believes that the more equitable process that allowed all residents to participate not just those that can afford to drop $20k for test answers was a good thing.[/quote]

$20k for Curie? Hard to believe. May be a private tutor that comes home, but Curie cant be costing more than Kumon. Does it?[/quote]

The poster knows it is false.  Been called on it many times.  Curie is around 5k but that is not dramatic enough for the poster.[/quote]
Even $5k is ridiculous. Are you sure your child is enrolled in Curie? We dont pay anywhere near.  A family in our neighborhood requested help, and Curie cut their fee to almost nothing. So make sure you take advantage of financial relief they provide.  DC really likes their rigorous math and college level english writing. It's tough but advanced kids in 7th and 8th would really like their precalculus curriculum.  [/quote]

They have a TJ prep course that if enrolled in 7th and 8th runs to 5k[b] I think[/b], but is cheaper if you don't do all of 8th grade.[/quote]
Why think? Call them and ask. Maybe too late for this year. Classes are full, but request to be put on waitlist [/quote]

We only signed up for a couple of years, so it cost us more than $20k, but it made all the difference for us under the old system. They had done a great job preparing DC for the entry exam. Having access to questions really helps.[/quote]
t seems like people are being tricked using Curie's name. Another person here made a $5k payment. Who are they paying and what for?
Our child goes to Curie, and we switched them from Kumon because Curie charges less than Kumon or any other enrichment program we considered. Price was a factor for us, as we are a single-parent income family. Also, absolutely no one at Curie goes for TJ prep only; mostly it's for advanced math, science, and English. Specifically, for math they go until precalculus concepts in 8th grade itself, which is why we chose Curie.  Not a good fit if child is not advanced.

That 20k person is lying again.  Signature 7 at Curie [b]appears to be[/b] $5100  for three semesters.[/quote]
well it is not. it's cheaper than AoPs[/quote]

That's what it says on the website.  [/quote]
