I know things are crazy this admissions season, country-wide.
How are things at TJ?
It's really gone downhill, but hopefully the changes to admission will help address these failings in years to come.
You must be crying because of all the envy and disdain. Stop crying and whining and try to do better.
Not sure what you're going on about but I couldn't be happier with TJ's new direction. Things should start looking up once the kids who got in because of test buying graduate.
No, things will get better due to the evisceration of affirmative action coming to the top colleges/universities near you in Summer blockbuster hit.
Yup, ending the Asian discrimination in college admissions will definitely increase the top 20 acceptances from about 80 to 160.
Hate to break it to you, but colleges are going to admit who they want to admit and they'll come up with a different way to do it. Especially private universities. And FCPS is going to find a way to do the same thing with TJ. The courts won't save you - you need to actually have positions that are popular enough to win elections.
The bottom line is that colleges and universities are businesses, and it's not good business for them in today's environment to have a predominance of any race, ethnicity, or other demographic in their student body.
Other forward-thinking businesses have recognized that there are multiple ways to achieve and demonstrate merit - should it come as a surprise that elite universities have followed in their footsteps?
We shall overcome this despicable racial discrimination against Asians someday.
People like you won’t be happy until TJ and all of the Ivies and MIT and Caltech are 100% Asian.
Despite their Asian segregation fantasies, it will never happen. The UC system has been race-blind for decades and provides a realistic glimpse of what we can expect.
But keep in mind California has a much higher percentage of Asians than most of the remainder of the US.
The UC system is not race-blind.

that's the school paper. they publish (self-reported, captures maybe 70% of class but not all) destinations in the final issue of year (June)
Looking at this it appears that TJ has been going downhill this past decade. Hoping the improvements to their selection process are enough to reverse the trend in years to come.
Perhaps the colleges have deliberately cut back on admitting from TJ.
Likely because of the types of students who were admitted by the previous process.

How do you get that when TJ is already 90% Asian?

It's true they will do what they want, but it seems like an easy start for a solution would be to cut back on international students from China.
