My guess is that it has virtually no impact, though definitely greater than zero. Especially not for higher ranked privates. G&T has been largely diluted so really doesn't mean much. I personally think that it is a waste of time at the elementary level, particularly if you are zoned for a good gen ed school, but that is a topic for another thread. The high school results coming out today could definitely impact things, but that is a different topic. |
Do spots sometimes open up for grade 7 at TT schools after Hunter results come out? |
I highly doubt it but crazier things have happened. I doubt any school loses more than 1-2 students to Hunter in a year (I'm guessing that 90+% of Hunter 7th graders come from public school), and those results come out pretty late. Plus 7th grade is generally not a normal entry point at most schools. If a school happened to lose student(s) and if they happened to have a candidate they were very excited about there is a chance they would make it work. But I wouldn't count on it. |
Disappointing but makes sense. (I guess I'm better off pinning my hopes on my own kid getting into Hunter than I am on somebody else getting in and opening up a spot) |
Anyone get in off a waitlist? |
