[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It’s silly to spring on these kids that they can’t walk at the last minute.

However, it’s deeply troubling that these kids can’t pass calculus. And shocking that they are taking Calc in 12th grade at TJ. The admissions changes really impacted the school that my kids graduated from just a few years ago. [/quote]

Mukai is fixing it as best he can by enforcing the GPA requirement and sending a lot of kids back to their schools after freshman year and recruiting large froshmore classes.[/quote]

That's not likely to go well. I can't imagine a sophomore being flung into the rigor of TJ.

Besides the fact that the actual issue at TJ is rampant cheating. That's the only way to succeed in classes like math where teachers have openly told me they don't teach the class material. Kids are expected to teach themselves and each other. [/quote]

And yet the Froshmores are doing better on average than the rest of the class.  By a noticeable margin.[/quote]
