Talk:Bronx High School of Science

message: No reference to the lyrics of this song would be complete without mentioning the tradition of adding "Oh, Baby...." just before the chorus "Hearken now".  This was a running gag at my own graduation from its hallowed halls and I am reasonably well informed that it is a long-standing tradition. Partnerfrance (talk) 18:27, 6 September 2013 (UTC)

message: Hi, I'm not a regular contributor here, but I would like to note that the logo image used in the article is not the official school logo. Granted, it is commonly used. One example being on the school's website. However, on the yearbooks, class rings, and alumni association materials the official logo may still be found. It is the classic telescope/microscope split image.  — Preceding unsigned comment added by 129.119.170.56 (talk) 04:59, 2 October 2013 (UTC)

message: Since there's an article about Bronx Science alumni already, shouldn't that section be trimmed a little? Otherwise, it may be a duplicate list. Epicgenius (talk) 20:06, 21 May 2014 (UTC)
replies: text: The list here was supposed to be a summary of the longer article which has much more detail, photos,etc. The severely trimmed list that is here now seems kind of arbitrary - the list that had been here had been almost all blue links, so are assumed to be people who have some notability. The way it is now doesn't make a lot of sense to me. Tvoz/talk 00:02, 12 October 2014 (UTC)
thread_title:  Alumni 

message: I have split off "Other notable alumni" again. Most of the entries are unreferenced, which is not optimal for an article of B-status; besides, there is a main article for this list, and references can be added there instead (where there are 104 references in the article, more than in here, with 85 refs as of this edit), as it is more organized and comprehensive. I am preparing the article for higher-quality status, so feel free to comment on that. – Epicgenius (talk) 13:36, 11 October 2014 (UTC)

message: The page summary says "The test is extremely competitive, with only 800 of the 30,000 applicants being accepted to Bronx Science each year." –  I'm not sure that's accurate, as most years anyone who gets into Stuyvestant has a high enough score to have gotten into Bronx Science, and there may also be students going to other specialized schools like Brooklyn Tech with scores sufficient to get into Science but who rank the other school more highly. It seems more accurate to say that out of 30,000 students, only 1-2 thousand have the scores necessary to attend. (Although, if those other students would in fact chose to attend, the required score would become higher, such that in the end only 800 would have gotten scores high enough, so not sure exactly how to word it.)

replies: text: I mean technically due to the way ranked choice works, almost everyone who can get into Stuy can get into Bronx Science, but they always tweak the minimum score so that about 800 people are admitted to the school after the ranked choices are processed.
