[quote=Anonymous]Are there any downsides to applying in a non-expansion year? We're thinking of having our child apply for 5th grade, which is not an entry year at the schools we like. The school websites say that children are welcome to apply for 5th, but that they will only be contacted for an interview if the school becomes aware there will be a vacancy through attrition. We figure our child could either get very lucky if there is a vacancy, or at worst, we've wasted money (for the WISC) and a lot of time but perhaps we've demonstrated our interest in the school and that might help us the following year when we re-apply to those same schools. Any downsides of which we should be aware? Thanks. [/quote]
