[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]TJ is really hard. Only the ones with ‘natural’ smarts should go here. rest all just struggle[/quote] Natural smarts ... hmm how do you identify that in ES/MS? all the kids who get into TJ are smart, you only find after the fact whether someone will excel at top 10%, 25%, 50%, or bottom half. Some cheat too, does that count as 'smarts'? Then some others do not know how to cheat, does that count as not 'smart'? There is a lot in between, TJ is hard, it comes down to mental maturity of the kids to handle it before they have the college level age maturity.[/quote] PP here: A standardized test like the PSAT. My kid is currently a senior at TJ. Doing ok. But reports that a good 25% to 30% of his class regularly bombs core courses like M4, Physics Honors. And there are kids who take AP Physics C in Sophomore year and land up with C’s. [/quote]
