notpashut, even the people I know who go/went there say its yeshivish.
Sjs,
I guess it depends where they are coming from. 🙂
Anyone know of any decent Yeshivo’s in the U.K?
notpashut, they come from families who call themselves yeshivish 🙂
Ye ye, all of us know which yeshiva is best, but after all we all choose “YESHIVA WORLD” as our primary yeshiva..
SJSinNYC:
Darchei teaches AP’s, doesn’t ask if you own a TV, but doesn’t allow / discourages college in BM. I think they don’t want to place a label on themselves, which is a good thing for a community school (had some friends who left there and joined me in BM due to the no college issue).
Gavra, that might make more sense. Most of the people I know went there for BM. Only my moderately yeshivish cousin went there for high school.
Just out of curiosity – if they teach APs in HS, and then a student goes to BM, how do they explain the paradox?
SJSinNYC
I admit ignorance. Perhaps a 5T person who has children in HS or BM in Darchei (or your cousin) can answer that.
can anyone give info on the following (for mesivta and B”M) : Peekskill, South Fallsburg, Springfield? (and any other yeshivos that are similar?)
South Fallsburg: is a great place for real serious full time learners!!! it is a really warm yeshiva lead by HaRosh HaYeshiva Rav Elya Ber Wachfogel!!!
asdfghjkl,
Were you a student there?
asd
what’s with the exclamation points!!! You put them after every sentence!!
Joseph: enough with the fbi questions pal!!!
beacon: t’s my signature thing around here!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!(is that enough?)
joseph couldn’t join the FBI if he tried. he’s got “secret agent” written all over him which makes it obvious that he’s a fraud.
brooklyn19: very true, wise statement regarding sir joseph & the fbi!!!
Edited
sorry asdfghjkl, that’s not a word in the english language. and i don’t speak swahili.
brooklyn19: lol maybe he’s cia???
Well done moderators for a fantastic job once again. Vehamaivin Yovin!!!
same difference. (and YES i know that’s not really english!)
surfer mentioned R’ Alster’s yeshiva. I go to his shul in Bklyn, i know firsthand that the students there are top-rate, really fine boys-and R’ Alster himself is worth going to the yeshiva for!
also, kollelwife asked about a few schools including Peekskill and South Fallsburg……..one of my brothers just finished BM in Peekskill. Happens to be the yeshiva wasnt his type at all, but he loved it–the R’Y is very into the boys and takes a sincere interest in their learning and growth process
S. Fallsburg: my father went there, and he raised me…lol jk dont know that much about it, but I think it has a very good reputation…good luck!
SJS, I don’t see a stira. Take APs in high school, get a good few solid years of exclusive Torah learning (i.e. beis medrash), then start taking some college classes. That’s one scenario.
thanks BY maydel—(I”m a kollel wife as well)…what “type” is Peekskill?
lol sorry i got your name wrong!! (one-track minded lol)
peekskill is considered very yeshivish, (…EDITED…) anyone can really fit in, like my brother did, he’s not yehivish at all, but he went for the excellent learning and rebbeim and rosh yeshiva
theres also Ohr Reuven in Monsey, or more commonly known as Rudinsky’s….Rabbi Rudinsky is famous among the boys…i have a cousin there…basically they teach so that when the boys come out, they really know their stuff
Does anyone know anything about Newman’s in Lakewood?
BYM,
be careful about revealing too much personal info online, you never know who may figure out your identity. I doubt there are too many ppl who’s father went to South Fallsburg, have an unyeshivish brother who just left peekskill and a cousin in Ohr reuven. I have no idea who you are but anyone who knows your family can probably figure it out.
yeah, BYM, charlie’s right. you should take a crash course by joseph.
Yeshiva Aderes HaTorah is awesome in Yerushalayim led by Rav Chaim Tzvi Senter and there were a few Newmans guys there when I was there and they are good learners and good guys.
Lakewood by the Rebbe R’ Matisyahu is the place to be!
brooklyn19, my crash course has crashed.
what does that mean?
Last page you said bym should take a crash course with me…
yeah i got that part. but what’s a “crashed crash course?” am i being slow or something?
Wachsman’s Yeshivah in monsey top of the line! Bound to be the next lakewood.
thanks bklyn and charlie for the heads up.
what does joseph havta do with it?
lol he could train you on being discreet
lol. i see. i didnt think ppl would actually gather all the small details and put them together to find…ME lol maybe thats the problem??
BYM … kind of, and it is especially ironic that in another thread, you warned me not to post personal info online
ya i remember that TOHSGUY….i think i just got carried away, or thought it wasnt so personal and who on earth is remembering everything i talk about…but from now on, ill watch out 🙂 thanks mini-mods
any info on woodlake yeshiva in Lakewood?
anyone know anything about R’ Nosson Stein’s Yeshiva in Lakewood?
yros – Good boys, good learners. I think others have mentioned Springfield and Fallsburg in this thread. Stein’s is not as yeshivish as those. Great yeshiva!
I’m still looking for any info on Woodlake village in Lakewood.
I’m clueless. thanks
I asked my husband (who went to Darchei for BM) about the Darchei conflict and this was his explanation:
Darchei is yeshivish. They also have a really strong secular education for the members of the community that want it, and to ensure that their kids can go out and do well if need be. The secular education counterbalances the yeshivish leanings of the school.
In Beis Medrash, without the secular studies, only the Yeshivish philosophy is left. They push hard to keep you learning.
So to sum up: the high school is yeshivish and you get top notch Jewish and secular education.
thanx esther1 that’s similar to what i’ve heard
What about torah vodaas ?
i heard belmar is a great place they have ahigh school and bm
goody613: its a great place , you’ve got my haskamah!
