How do you know they're inferior? A good number of these may be students who would not have applied to TJ otherwise but will because they feel like there's a chance other kids at their school will go too.[/quote]

Oh, sure, that's what's stopping people from applying.  How about the people who have applied?
Under the new policy it is clear many would be getting in who would not have under the old policy.

Academy of Loudoun has made similar changes, and the waiting list has lots of Stone Hill students who can only go if someone else from Stone Hill doesn't accept a spot.[/quote]

So? This is pretty much how college admissions works too, as they rightly understand that it's better for their school environment to have students from many different areas and backgrounds.[/quote]
Colleges do not have max quotas per school.  It is one thing to have a minimum quota for each school then a number of at large seats.  But they have made it where the schools with lots of Asians are limited to 5 spots, regardless of how many at large spots there are.[/quote]

This is absolutely false. Schools like Carson and Longfellow will pick up the vast majority of the at-large spaces, of which there will be plenty because many Loudoun and PW (and even a couple of Fairfax) schools will not have enough qualified applicants to reach their school-based quotas.[/quote]

OK.  Loudoun implemented a max quota as well.  It appears Fairfax is different.[/quote]
