| Beauvoir. I was told they have well over 200 apps for 20 spots. |

You have no point of reference, which makes that ratio by itself meaningless. For example, our school had 16 applications for each K spot. I don't know if that makes it the *most* difficult school to get into, but I do know that it is apparently a higher applicant/spot ratio than Beauvoir. I was assuming that Sidwell and Maret were getting 20-30 applications for each spot, but maybe I was overestimating demand. |

I have to admit that I'm not up on charters, but I thought that most (all?) used a lottery to admit students. If that's the case, it's not a question of difficulty; it's just a question of your odds. |

Oh, well, because you were told this, clearly that makes it fact. |

Are you speaking from experience? If so, could you provide additional feedback on the lower/middle school experience? TIA. |

| And what is the purpose of this question? Trying to conclude something about your self-worth OP? |

| Who cares? Exclusive does not equal quality. |

| I don't think Beauvoir is that hard (especially if you're coming from NCRC or St. John's). I think Sidwell and Maret are tougher. |
