<p>Why bother “bother w Stuyvesant or Bronx Sci”?
-It must be a joke. Stuyvesant is free. I am very proud that my GrandD. is at Stuyvesant and hope that her Bro will follow her or end up at Brooklyn Tech (currently this one is his goal). nope, kids were not groomed for anything, GrandD. jsut decide to take a test and score was good enough for Stuyvesant. Nope, it is NOT diverse at all. 72% are Chinese and 20% of caucasian kids are Russian jews. Who cares about diversity? We certainly do not. My kids are very outgoing and accepting, GrandD has friends among every group and Chinese parents actually allow their kids to be with her despite of their general restriction towards caucasion kids because they think of them as lazy. This is the fact, I have nothing to do with it, so do not blame it on me anyhow. How you can go wrong with the school that had 33 applicants to each spot and select them strictly on their ability and nothing else. That insures the intellectual level, however, there ia no diversity in terms of personalities. Actually GrandD. had a hard time looking for more laid back kids and said that she is stuck doing gymnastics, since this is a more relaxed group of kids. But she is in everything else, you name it and she is doing it. Very hard working kid… </p>
