[quote=Anonymous]Regarding question on tests, I wrote about this in the past. The previous TJ principal talked about several times. TJ is different from other HS. In base HS's you are tested on the material directly. That means if you paid attention in class and/or read the material and have a basic understanding of the material, you can get 100% on the test. This is how 99.99% of high school tests/quizzes work. At TJ, you are expected to have a deep understanding of the material, not just a basic understanding. What does this mean? It means that you should be able to apply the concept to a different situation or combine two different concepts to solve a problem. This is typically how colleges do in their tests. At least the top 100 colleges. This means you need to think through the material, stop and think, not just plug and play. This is where the myth "they give questions that are not taught" comes up.
