Wow. Our school had nothing. So glad the students are on an even plane, not.
I also have a child that takes it tomorrow. I'm actually happy for the students from URM schools that they got to take tours of TJ that other schools didn't had the chance for, and now receive TJ PREP and mock exams that other students have been vehemently accused for. Kudos to the district for leveling the play field.
Wouldn't leveling the playing field be giving the resource to everyone?
There was no prep class offered at Longfellow.
No opportunity for a campus tour either, so far as I’m aware.
My child didn't take any TJ prep. Nor was his school offered any tour. I think the county could treat all schools equally by prepping and giving mock exams to all students. Why leave the job to Prep centers?
I guess there a few rare kids that didn't but places like Curie claim they account for over 30% of the entering class you know the vast majority are coming from one prep place or another.
I hate curie as much as anyone else. They are a scam.
Curie has more than 30% of the applying students in their centers. So going to curie gives you a slightly below average chance.
More of their clients ended up at TJ than anyplace else. Anyhow, I wish they'd go back to the good old days too when you could simply buy the test answers. It was so much easier.
I'm hearing a lot about Curie. We are inside the beltway so cant commute. Do they offer online courses?

How long is the Curie program? Does the child have to be at a certain math level to get enrolled?

No prep or tour offered at our MS.
Too Asian/white privileged, I suppose.
