Brooklyn Technical High School is the quintessential NYC school. The largest public high school in the state if not the country. While smaller schools advertise their student-teacher ratio and other such statistics Tech holds different strengths. In my experience, Tech is more akin to a medium-sized college than a high school. As a magnet students will need adequate testing skills and prep for admission. Accountability is everything. Making friends, bonding with teachers, and receiving help demands communication skills. Like our city, you need to know how to speak up. Tech's size is a double-edged sword; while it means less individual attention, slower and less organized bureaucracy, it also means a plethora of opportunities, communities, and even academic majors! Tech builds character and prepares you for the real world by demanding self-sufficiency, dedication, and confidence. Ambitious, driven, and adventurous students will thrive at Tech. Freshman, learn your cardinal directions!
As the only school that has something like the majors' program, Brooklyn Technical High School is one of the largest and most unique schools in the US. The diversity and student size of this school are comparable to those of small-sized colleges! I believe that even though the teacher to student ratio is not as ideal as other small schools, the teachers here have tried their best to personally tend to each and every student. As a specialized high school, Brooklyn Tech has many programs outside of simply just education. With many varsity teams and student-created clubs, there is a place where every student can feel comfortable and excel with their talents. The Majors' program is also a great opportunity that allows students to pick their own major, getting classes unique to what they have chosen. Tech gives students an experience in the real world before giving them the tough decision of college decisions and choosing majors. Brooklyn Tech is a great school for all who were accepted!
I like all the academic opportunities that Brooklyn Tech offers; I truly believe it helps prepare you for college, especially with so many resources like the college newsletters and all the guidance counselors who are there to help students with the college application process. There is an enormous number of clubs at Brooklyn Tech, and some are so specific you wouldn't even believe that a club like that would exist! There really is a club for every person. Most of the teachers at Brooklyn Tech are good, however, there are always a few that most students would rather not have. Overall, what I would want to improve in Brooklyn Tech would be the academic facilities in the school like the lab rooms, and making sure there are enough supplies for students to use while doing practical, hands-on activities.
