[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think the unfortunate issue here are the academic results that are rolling in with the new process. Scores are much lower on SOLs and PSATs and achieved Math. It also shows the new system isn’t selecting for geniuses that were left out because rich kids gamed the admissions. It actually confirms that the previous admits were just academically better students… in many areas. [/quote] They were better test takers, no doubt about it - because the previous process overselected for test taking ability. It's no more complicated than that. Doesn't mean they are necessarily smarter or more deserving of the opportunities that TJ provides, and it certainly doesn't mean that TJ was a better academic environment before.[/quote]
