[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I couldn’t imagine doing this to my kid - “moved to an apartment in less competitive area for a year for a better admission chance “ - Social pressure already hard for most of middle schooler. My son already has his circle of friends and tribe in his competitive MS (which is actually positive peer pressure environment) and I can’t think of how I should ripped it apart from him.., the damage could probably worse than the benefit getting into TJ.[/quote] Not to mention their chances of admission are lower at those schools since they send fewer kids[/quote] I'm getting the feeling this is being posted by a parent who is adopting this plan, and is discouraging the competition from copying it.[/quote] Just the opposite, the parent who encourages strong students to leave the feeder schools is doing so to thin the real competition.[/quote] How sad and pathetic that any parent feels compelled to play these games. Feel sorry for their kids. It sets a bad example and the real world doesn't work this way. TJ isn't the ticket people think it is. It's just a high school.[/quote]
