[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]These new classes are definitely not academically as strong. Greater number of kids struggling already and they haven’t experienced notoriously difficult junior year yet. My kid knows multiple classmates repeating math as sophomores. [/quote]

If the classes were not as strong as before, kids would not be struggling.  Good to know they are maintaining high standards in their teaching.[/quote]

The good news is I heard the exact opposite was true. The new kids are the strongest cohort in years. In the past, many average kids were admitted only because they had early access to the admissions test by paying thousands to outside prep. At least these new kids are the very best and brightest from their respective schools based on fair and objective criteria.[/quote]

Did you see the data? 541/550 kids joined class of 2025 (9 accepted but did not join). 15 students were admitted as "sophmores". As of March, 2023 there are 520 kids in 10th grade. What does it mean? 21+15=36 kids dropped out from the class of 2025 in addition of 9 who did not even join. I would not be surprised if this drop further this year and in the Junior year. This stat, with the "watered down" rigor and grading. You think kids would drop out even when they are not struggling?[/quote]
