[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Someone posted here that kids who made USAMO or Jr USAMO in 7th grade did not get in, despite those taking either the top high school math students or top thru 10th grade.[/quote] So? Excellent scores on one math exam, or a limited series of math exams, do not equate to "best suited for TJ".[/quote] If a kid qualifies for USAJMO in middle school, that kid is one of the top 50 or so mathematicians in their grade level in the entire country. It's hard to argue that such a kid is not best suited for one of the 550 slots at TJ. It's also hard to argue that the base school could even come close to meeting the needs for that kid. [/quote]
