[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Unless you have toured TJ 's labs [/quote] Have done that. [quote=Anonymous]and looked at the online course catalog (google it), [/quote] Have done that, too. [quote=Anonymous]you have no idea whether TJ is better for kids [b]seriously interested in math and science[/b][/quote] So I have done both of those prerequisites, as the PP states must be done. [quote=Anonymous] --- and the answer is that TJ is better for any kid wanting advanced studies at his home school [b]in those subjects[/b]. [/quote] For a "kid wanting advanced studies in math and science" TJ may not necessarily be better than a kid staying at her/his home school. My kid wants advanced studies in computer science and technology and can better meet these desires at the neighborhood high school, combined with opportunities for internships, extra-curricular activities and online coursework. As was stated earlier in this thread, whether or not TJ is better than the neighborhood high school depends on the kid. [/quote]
