[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sty most kids done with all APs in 10th.  Most only take those on a full schedule across all classes then it is off to IB.  They steal all your Cornell slots. NYU slots. U Chi spots. Williams spots.  Columbia slots.  Wake up! You lost the game not being born in the right city. [/quote]

The kids from the DMV public magnets do pretty well too. Thomas Jefferson has been one of the top 10 feeder HSs for Harvard over the last 15 years. [/quote]

This is verifiable b.s.  TJ sent 6 out of 500 students to Harvard in 2024, barely 1% and hardly impressive when the Harvard admission rate is 4%.  All the NYC top privates send at least 10% to Harvard every year.  polarislist.com[/quote]

Try looking at data, before you spout off your own easily verifiable bs.  PP referred to the past 15-year period not your single data point from 2024.  TJ was 13th among all the high schools in the country (public and private) in feeders to Harvard from 2009-2024.It was the only DMV area school (public or private) on the top feeder list.
