It was an interesting list. What is your problem?

Hopefully, your TJ kids speak and write better English than you do.


Hopefully, you can speak other language other English.


Bien sur!

So your French is imperfect by the second word. Lay off the other poster's English.

Nineteen poor children are going to Duke. That's completely unacceptable. Why won't someone do SOMETHING to help them avoid this terrible fate?


Are you anti Duke?

part of the reason is because your average 3.8/9 from NOVA schools (including private) can't get into UVA or VT without some sort of hook.


Then how is it that TJ manages about 180 acceptances to UVA and about 150 acceptances to VaTech without any hooks? (URM, athelete, legacy etc.)


Because they probably all have 4.5+ GPAS.


There are typically only about 1 or 2 TJ students who graduate with perfect GPA (4.0 unweighted).

Actually the range of GPA for class of 2014 was 3.291 to 4.588 so not many 4.5+s.

You sound bitter.


NP - actually, I don't get the point either. Any HS in DC area will have the same schools.


exactly even the 35,000 a year privates. why waste your money..........


That's not the case, and even the distributions will differ, where the same schools are represented. Some publics in NoVa send more kids to U. Va than any other four-year school, while others will send more kids to Mason.
