Has anyone called AEI? I think that's what people reported doing last year.

Or we could just go on with our daily lives. Don't call anyone til at least after March 25 or something. Sheesh.
This thread is making me antsy! I would have happily put it out of my mind til April.

The open houses are before April so I don't think you can put it out of your mind till then. Appeals are due April 3rd so I am certain they will be made and received this week.

Pine Crest median scores for accepted students:

Verbal: 136
Quantitative: 130
Nonverbal: 127

This timeline seems crazy to me - we need to make a decision two days after the parent tour and before the child gets to tour. Is that right?
