We're glad we're not the halls of Stuyvesant or Bronx Science these days, as they were totally shafted when the Intel Science finalists were announced. In fact, none of the finalists for the 65th Annual STS are from NYC public schools - the only New Yorker is Horace Mann student Sarah Kate Rapoport. Does this mean the city's public school science curriculum, even at the magnet schools, sucks? Or was it bad luck?
There were 25 semi-finalists from city public schools. We wonder if they are trashing the science labs in anger.

they are using bunsen burners to light scantrons on fire!
Grr, they never mention Hunter in those articles, even though we've won twice in the last 10 years (that I can remember).
And its still pretty impressive that we have 13 finalists from NY, where as CA only has 3.
maybe they figured out that the Stuy kids weren't doing the projects themselves?
Jen, I know you went to Stuy but wouldn't it be nice to use a pic of BxSci or even dare I say, Bkly'n Tech, when you post about the specialized HS. I feel like Stuy gets too much love from Gothamist.
She can't, because Stuyvesant students hate Brooklyn Tech. When Stuy was shut down for a few months after 9/11, their students doubled up in Tech. They had all sorts of terrible things to say about their hosts, calling the then 68-year-old school dirty and crowded. (Duh, you think? With two schools' worth of students in it?) Too bad these spoiled brats never went to the old Stuy, which was even smaller than Tech.
We wonder if they are trashing the science labs in anger.
No, they're class act kids. They move on and explore other endeavors.
What a dumb thing to say.
