[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Professor Po-Shen Loh, the coach for US math Olympiad team, said that for genuine self-learners, they don't need TJ. They can go to base school and after 2:30 dismissal they can just sit in their room and study ahead of any advanced subjects themselves. Going to TJ would put extra demand on subjects they are not interested in. He also said at every Olympiad camp, there is little difference between student in second place and 50th place in terms of intelligence, but the student in 1st place is way above everyone else and nobody knows how he get that good. So I guess he meant for the truly genius students, a very small portion of good students, they don't need TJ.[/quote] This sounds like a very lonely HS experience. [/quote]
