Swami checking in here after bad food truck lunch of a week or so ago, ready to Swami your lists.
In order to allow for maximum swamiing, post list, any preferences, and grade applied for. Swami's true passion is waitlist swami life, but let me read your lottery future. |

Swami knows you and your partner debate how you should have ordered your PK3 list for your rising 1st grader several years again. Swami thinks the grass is not greener, and you will feel good about your terrible waitlist numbers by June and double down for your HRCS. |

Swami is a longtime lottery observer who amuses folks here during lottery season.
She predicts your fate — and tends to be right pretty often. |

Swami says you will get a great number, Hearst with no problem, and be in the top 15 at Murch. You will hesitate to commit to your aftercare options at Hearst, thinking the list will move enough at Murch. but it won't |

Swami says the good I have is the haphazard nature of your list. You will get into Sela at lottery day, wonder why the waitlist is so short; get into SSMA by July with your 30+ waitlist number, wondering why the list moved so quickly. You will try to join the parent organization, but man, why do they argue so much? |

Swami says you will get into Stokes EE French and then Spanish in short order. And then SSMA. You will need to remember to leave the "school" part of your enrollment form blank, because you will land in the WL top 10 of TRY, TR4, ITS and Lee. You will eventually get offers from TR and ITS and go with commute, enrolling at ITS the second week of August. You will feel like you cannot believe you wasted your summer on this waitlist drama, and also grateful |
