In 1987 I think 18 went to Harvard? … graduating class was about 750 then.

Different world in so many ways: NYU was an expensive commuter school, like why, Columbia also embarassing, especially for engineering…

This is one of the best high schools in the country. Why put it down? Can’t you just accept the colleges are impressive.

I just looked it up. Stuy is 71% Asian.

TJ used to also be like 70% Asian but after the admissions changes, the last class was like 50% Asian.

Lol you are obviously not familiar with Stuy. It is like 70%+ Asian. I know there were times where they also were challenged about admissions but I think they kept their standards unlike TJ.

Stuyvesant is awesome. Much harder to get into and do well in than TJ.

900 kids per grade??? That is a huge school.

TJ’s colleges also looking good.

I’m from NY and currently live in VA (McLean). It seems like a lot of people in VA pick more publics like UVA, W&M and VT over other better privates.
