They got 133 in 2024 and 93 in 2025.

Curie's having 93 out of 550 seats, suggests either Fairfax didn't eliminate the preppability of admissions, or that Curie was getting a lot of students who were going to get in anyways.

What it actually means is that Curie is relatively ubiquitous among the South Asian community in Western Fairfax and Loudoun counties. If a South Asian student gets into TJ from that part of the county, there's a pretty strong chance (although it isn't 100%) that that student is a Curie product.

In each case, either the student would have gotten in anyway (which means the parents wasted their money) or the student nudged out someone else (which is why people use the "pay-to-play" term that everyone seems to hate so much).

Real pay to play is the "Varsity Blues" cases not prepping.

Remember that Varsity Blues wasn't just fake sports. It was also kids being provided with test answers, in the case of the fraudulent SAT testing protocols. That's actually a one-to-one comparison with the recent TJ scandal of kids at prep centers getting the answers ahead of time.

Such absolute lies, It is very much people like you who also attacked the capitol and killed people saying the elections were fake.

I read postings where multiple current TJ students discussed seeing the Quant Q questions ahead of time. One that comes to mind is TJ Vents on Facebook during the summer of 2020.

Were all those kids lying? I’m inclined to believe the children when they said they saw those questions ahead of time. Curie got 50 kids in the class of 2022, 80 in the class of 2023 and 120 on the Class of 2024.

So better to eliminate elections because there are a few instances of fraud?

Throw the book at Curie. Make them pay through the nose and if there is any evidence of fraud, lock up everyone responsible.

FCPS side, you can make tests that do not repeat the same questions every year. I heard there are tests like that.

There is no need to eliminate teacher recommendations. There is none. No justification. But FCPS did that.

I can also point to one clear case of fraudulent admission to TJ in the class of 2025. Teacher recommendation would have 100% caught that case. I know because the science teacher recommendation letter that they would have had to provide would be a ding.

But woke social justice warriors - the exact equivalent of Trump nut job bleach drinking retard supporters, wanted to jump on Floyd wagon and promote their agenda.

This is how you get a liberal left wing supporter to contribute and vote for Trump.

There are SAT sample questions at SAT prep classes! Maybe TJ should have put some work to put together a test with non-standard math questions...

It is so sad that such false equivalences and bad faith are being employed to pull down kids who are doing math. to favor kids who don't do the work but want to write essays. truly counterproductive for society.

This was literally the entire point of the Quant-Q. The Quant-Q is an entire exam filled with non-standard math questions that are designed to test a student's native problem-solving ability against questions that they've never seen before. It was also a secured exam that both proctors and students were required to sign an NDA for after having seen it.

It became less than useless - and indeed a confounding variable in the admissions process - when, as reported by multiple TJ students, kids memorized the questions, brought them back to Curie, and allowed Curie to create a bank of questions to inform their $5K/year prep classes.

Curie didn't do anything illegal - a few enterprising 8th graders who probably wanted to help their little brothers or sisters did. For this reason, there isn't any value in a potential investigation. But the bottom line is that Curie killed their golden goose and indirectly impacted hundreds, if not thousands, of Indian families in the process.

Never mind the damage they did to their community by releasing the lists of first and last names of the students who were admitted - and identified many of them as Loudoun County residents by indicating that they were also admitted to AOS and AET.

If you ever needed evidence that Dr. Rao was in this solely to make an easy buck off of Indian families (because remember, literally 100% of Curie TJ/AOS/AET admits are South Asian), that was it. He used them to sell his program and made millions as a result.

Quant Q by your definition is standardized. Just like SAT. Rediitt has hundreds of students sharing SAT questions after they attend the exam and prep centers help here too.
So my point remains. TJ could have come up with non-standardized tests with all the millions at their disposal.

The SATs are standardized but not secured. There is no agreement that students sign not to share the questions on the exam and the point of the SAT isn’t to test people on how they respond to question types that they haven’t seen.

Additionally, the school itself has ABSOLUTELY NOTHING to do with the admissions process.

So if school is not responsible, who is? Nobody? I have nothing to do with TJ. Just a curious onlooker.

The county. But I appreciate your confirmation that you don’t know what you’re talking about.

So who in the county is responsible specifically? Is it an external agency reporting to the county board?

First of all, this company that you're referring to charges a LOT less than similar companies. I won't name them here because I'm not trying to feed them any business.

Second, they hand-select who they will admit into the program based on perceived likelihood of success. Credit to them, but they won't take the money of a family who they think has no shot.

Third, their claim of 85% success is unsubstantiated.

This is all true, but does not counter that prep is extremely effective under the “reformed” system. Admissions are still being gamed.

Lottery would be the best solution.

They have fallen in disfavor because it blocks their desire to boost minority enrollment.
Asians and whites who pursue test-optional admissions will find themselves doing poorly.

Some like MIT has already moved on from these trend. Now that univ maynot be undesirable for many.
