[Anonymous]

Waitlisted Miner OOB for PK3 (16). In at MV J.F. Cook but a quick search on DCUM doesn't inspire a ton of confidence...we shall see.

Twin A school 1 waitlisted 39th
Twin B school 1 waitlisted 41st

Twin A school 2 waitlisted 76th
Twin B school 2 waitlisted 79th

Twin A school 3 waitlisted 112th
Twin B school 3 waitlisted 115th

Neither were admitted to any of these so it's not sibling offered preference or anything like that. Is this just a weird coincidence that both ended up with really close master numbers? This is for pk3 and they're in at our inbound, Noyes.

Wow—definitely bad lottery luck.

Anyone interview at SWW and get rejected/WL’ed?

How can one be waitlisted at MA when rising Deal 9th graders have a preference?

Interviewed at Banneker and got ineligible. Interviewed at Walls and waitlisted over 70. Know other folks who had interviews and were ineligible at both.

minor should have plenty of open spots

Can any lottery veterans please shed light into when the waitlist moves? Obviously there would be movement by the enrollment deadline (May 1) but hopefully I don't manically check every day before then..

If I am reading the historical data correctly, they offered 10 spots off the waitlist last year.

What does “ineligible” even mean in this case?

Rejected outright. Not even waitlisted.

It's different every year. Some years schools add seats in the summer and then there's a lot of summer movement. But I don't think that's happened in a long while. If there's somewhere you really want your kid to go, be prepared to move in September. Many offers come then.

It sounds like your child did well. Even making it on to the waitlist at Walls is definitely a good thing. I know kids who've made it off of the waitlist there in past years.
