1300 and above should be safe.

Many students I know got into both AOS and AET and will be declining 1 of them ( and if they get TJ as well, can posibly decline both AOS and AET)


DS is now offered admission in both AOS and AET. Which one is a better school? He has chosen the Engineering pathway for AET.

Any experience on AET/AOS waitlist? How many kids make it?

Can you provide some information on the wait list process for AOS/AET? Our DS is on the wait list for both. Curious to know what are his chances for making it.


My DD got accepted in AET and waitlisted on AOS. Her choice is AOS.

I too am curious to know if anyone can provide some insight.

How many students get placed on waitlist for AOS abd AET? How many are offered admission from the waitlist pool?

Plus AET you can leave after 2 years.


I would seriously consider AET for the STEM classes vs the same classes at the local HS. Only problem is that there are no Biology (Lifescience?) courses at AET and has to be taken online in summer. If student is interested in medical field, it might be big disadvantage

No, not yet. AET has a lot to catch up before it can be at par with AOS. I attended the information sessions for both schools and there is a big difference between these schools

AET is a part-time program so the kids still go to their base school every other day.
