[quote=Anonymous]It is not more math or higher level math. In base HS, you learn the theory and the problems are pretty direct application of that theory. You understand the theory, you just apply it. At TJ, you need to figure out how to apply that theory, because it is not just straight application. You need strong analytical and thinking skills. You have to spend time thinking about the problem. In one of the subjects, my child was able to do a problem, but would get zero points because, wait for it, it is not elegant or the simplest possible one. It is a tough problem, and it took him a day later to figure out how to do it. Some children like these things a lot and some hate it. I am tremendously impressed with the teacher for giving these kinds of problems. For me, this is the reason to go to TJ for this experience. [/quote]
