[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I am also curious why the PP thinks new admissions locate the kids with aptitude. No aptitude test, no teacher recs, and consideration of hardship factors that have no bearing on STEM aptitude. [/quote] Agree. If I had to guess, the admissions process would now have to count more heavily on GPA and the student's standing within their MS. The application process did not collect any extracurricular information (STEM activities) and the essays never asked what the students would bring to TJ or why they think TJ and STEM is right foe them. Looking at the admissions data from 2018 and 2019, those elements, along with the recommendation letters, seem to have been a big factor in the rejection of many 4.0 AAP students (quite a few in Alg 2 and Geom in 8tb grade were not admitted). Under the current process, I have to wonder if they will rely on the MS input for identifying the top 2-3% of students from their school[/quote]
