And the results will be about the same this year as last (easy to check this if you want to bother). There's no doubling up. But whatever. Keep your world view that not many TJ students have awards, they all cheat, they are all actually worthless, their parents are scum, TJ will close tomorrow. Doesn't change the real world inhabited by me and my TJ DC at all.

That's 54 kids, for 1 year of a handful of competitions. As said before - not all are Siemens/Intel finalists, but many do compete at high levels and have national recognitions they can put on their applications.

There are many more. TJ teams place 1st or 2nd at the American Computer Science League every year, which includes international teams. There is an MIT competition for innovation that was won by 2 TJ kids last year worth $8000 in addition to the prestige it brings. There are many many more that goes by unlisted. The fact is TJ kids are doing great, of course there are some problems, but the naysayers want to focus on the negatives only, and not look at the positives. Shame on them.

Shame on the cheaters and the school for allowing the culture of cheating to continue. Awards don't matter if you're a cheater.

How do they cheat in any of the above listed competitions? you sound like a loser who is just plain jealous of these kids accomplishments.

Not the PP you're responding to, but here is one outrageous way:

That doesn't mean DC is not capable of graduate level research - DC has received the same training as all the other TJ students, participates in the same classes and labs. And DC is not planning on getting out of STEM, but will probably dual major in a foreign language. While only 1/4 of the class may win a national award in Science or such, the MAJORITY of the class engages in STEM topics and applies to Engineering/Math/Science program for college. A handful (less than 1/4) apply to other types of programs, but the rigorous nature of the research education they have received works well in all academic disciplines.

1/4 win a national science award????? Come on, man! Are you kidding?

Except the fact they cheat, TJ kids are really impressive.
