[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PP this is OP. Please reread my posts. I thought, wrongly so, that IB offered something like a TJ experience for humanities kids. I suppose you are also against TJ as the kids are selected. [/quote]

You are wearing my patience.  Not against TJ.  (actually couldn't care less about it).  It's the substance of the program that matters, not the process for starting into the program.  You would have us believe that you knew enough about the IB program that it was a great fit for your humanities loving child -- so much that you would seriously consider transferring her away from a solid HS to attend an IB program (which is perfectly fine for those who value IB as you indicated)... but upon learning something that is completely unrelated to the IB education (i.e. self-selection process), you have now decided on that basis alone that IB isn't for you/your child!  So, either you were willing to transfer your child to a program you knew almost nothing about (substantively), or you really don't care about the substance/curriculum and you only care about your child being marked as "superior" by being "selected" for it.  Either way... not good, not logical.[/quote]

Not the OP, but your post is ridiculous.  You are trying way too hard to paint the OP into corners that exist only in your imagination. [/quote]
