The real number maybe higher than this but definitely not much. Worst year in decade.

I am an alumni interviewer for one of these schools so I see the breakdown of admits by HS. Your number is accurate for my school. The list posted before was extremely inflated inflated.

TJ's impressive. College outcomes have diminished over the past decade, because the quality of candidates also went down as people figured out how to game admissions, but this should be reverse as the new criteria is doing a much better job identifying strong candidates.

Thank you for the confirmation. I also heard from multiple parents that TJ so far had 11 confirmed admissions to the top five universities. Last year it was about 31. The inflated numbers weren’t true.

Largely athletes, but not recruited ones.

Yes, it's an epic failure. It's a disservice to the wonderful students, the most hardworking, down to earth, and brilliant young people of their age.

The current admins focused on anything but promoting academic excellence.

The infamous lawsuit and disgusting and long-lasting battle among different activist parties put TJ in a bad lighting and impaired its reputation, which had negatively affected the college admission officers' decision making.

The turmoil around the admission changes inevitably affected the morale and mental health of the teachers and students. Many good teachers left. New teachers don't even know the materials they teach. Many good counselors felt less interested in helping students. Many students were left by themselves to navigate the complex college application process.

Sadly, there are more to list. The school just failed its students. Just ask any current senior how they felt about their prom last weekend, not to mention the ridiculous incident. This year is probably the start of the falling of a great school.

This is a clown show response from someone who is trying to create waitlist movement to serve their kid.

Denial coming in 3…2….1…

Yeah. That’s funny. None of that is true. Except the prom got disrupted by a power outage. That part is true.
