That would be a sensible response given how contentious the process has become, the number of students requiring remediation, and the reports that the upper grades think a lot of the current freshmen don’t belong at TJ.
The fact that the upper grades would think such things about their freshmen colleagues is direct evidence of why change was so necessary at TJ in the first place.
The parents who are doing so very openly is even further evidence.
Amen. TJ is a public school. It should serve children with an interest in STEM - not just rich (mostly Asian) children with an interest in STEM.
The school does serve everyone. There was even a race-blind selection process too which has now been replaced with a racist process - as per a federal judge.
Oh yes, because our sacred federal judges definitely know all the universally correct answers and us mere plebeians must follow their guidance...

More qualified federal judge disagreed with the guy who essentially copied-and-pasted C4TJ talking points into his opinion, proving why he's been stuck at the District Court level for 40 years.

Years ago, when she attended a Techstravaganza Student Panel Q&A with the audience, she unexpectedly asked the Panel how they cope with their day (given the pressures of performance, expectations to succeed, etc.)... something along those lines. So, while waiting anxiously in anticipation of the results, the best we can do as caregivers is to encourage our loved one to continue to do their best in the face of prejudice. They made it this far in the timeline process of selections; so, if not selected for admission, then it will actually be an opportunity for her to shine her brilliance elsewhere (and probably have more fun, LOL).
