[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Well what are the looking for in a candidate and who has the best chance of getting selected?[/quote] Rich families who donate and volunteer and who went to top schools, plus smart neurotypical kids who will someday go to one of their parents’ schools but will give Potomac credit for it. [/quote] For kindergarten, assuming that the child has no red flags testing and behavior-wise, admission is almost all about the parents and whether the family helps the diversity and balance of the new class as PP noted. You can't control who else is applying and who is a sibling/legacy/child of faculty or staff. Some years your chances would be better than others. Admissions offices usually can't draw a lot of useful distinctions between a bunch of four year-olds.[/quote]
