Oh, I’m not proposing that Stuyvesant change its admissions policy! It has a mission that is well served by its admissions policies and I agree, Stuy is Caltech. I have no argument with a school that holds itself out to be school for high achieving STEM students and uses student performance on admissions tests to determine admission. And aren’t there other test in schools that offer alternatives to those who don’t get into Stuy?
Harvard, on the other hand, is not Caltech.
