[quote=Anonymous]I think in PK3, a "good" number is the top 10% of numbers. Even that is not enough for some DCPS schools for nonsiblings, but it will get you into a HRCS. In Pk4, top 20%. K and 1st, top 30%. 2nd and up, it varies by school but a number in the top 40% will get you somewhere. It's just really unlikely to have a "bad" number all of those years in a row. Mathematically possible, sure. I have seen people misunderstand the lottery and screw it up. I have seen people waste a great number on a school I think is awful. I have seen people put all their chips on one school year and lose. And I have seen people try year after year to get into one specific school and fail. But at the elementary level, if you are a reasonable person who understands the basics of the lottery, an adequate school is definitely available. Maybe not your top choice, but adequate yes, definitely.[/quote]
