[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] One could certainly imagine a lottery system where kids get one number for each SCHOOL they choose, mitigating risk and allowing a new shot at every school — not just a totally correlated slate of outcomes, all good or all bad. [/quote] A sucky lottery number is a sucky lottery number. What you're proposing is more draws, but at the end of the day those with good draws get good outcomes and those with bad draws get bad outcomes. More draws doesn't increase the number of desirable seats. [/quote]
