[quote=Anonymous]TPMS and Eastern applicants are so competitive that their test scores are just a baseline, to make sure they can manage the work. The rest has to do with extracurriculars, essays, and teacher recommendations. With that many applicants, it is likely that the top 300, not just the top 100, could succeed in the program. They're also looking for self-starters, very focused people, creative/artistic, leadership. They're looking for a good mix of kids that have included student body president of their 1200-kid elementary school, MD/DC/VA rugby champions, kids who have lived all over the world, kids who have danced with conservatories when they were 8 or 9, people who make it into All County orchestra--3 years earlier than their peers.[/quote]
