most prestigious high schools in the country.
Brooklyn Tech counts top scientists, inventors,
innovators, CEOs and founders of Fortune 500
companies and others among its alumni. Each
fall, approximately 30,000 eighth and ninth
graders take the school’s three-hour admittance
test, of which only 1,900 to 1,950 students
