[quote=Anonymous]They were trying to increase URM admissions, so reduced the emphasis on math during the intake, and attempted to "include a wide variety of factors, such as race, ethnicity, gender, English for speakers of other languages (ESOL), geography, poverty, prior school and cultural experiences, and other unique skills and experiences.”. As a result of this, TJ rejected over one-quarter of the applicants with scores in the top five percent on the AMC 8, a highly competitive national math exam, and rejected more than 100 of the 376 applicants with scores of 47 or higher on the math portion of the admissions test, which has a maximum score of 50. There was a hue and cry over this, and they then course-corrected back to emphasizing math.[/quote]
