Most of the parent and child profiles are very similar and you can't predict what these schools are looking for enough to give your kid a huge edge.

Totally agree with this perspective. One major downside of private school life is the bizarrely competitive parents. You - and your child- will benefit from shifting your perspective and starting this process from a friendlier and more inclusive place.
