[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Sorry OP, there really isn't. Especially in that area where there's so much variety in size, type, and desirability of schools, the lists tend to behave quite differently. It varies a lot by grade level, and can change from year to year and grade to grade at each school.

If you post your list and approximate numbers, we can be more helpful. For 1st grade I think you stand a good chance, even with those numbers, at a lot of schools.

I assume you've seen this: https://public.tableau.com/app/profile/aaron2446/viz/MSDCSeatsandWaitlistOfferData_draft/MSDCPublicDisplay[/quote]

Yes, that's the site I've been using.

I guess we just have to wait and see. These are our numbers for the schools I think we stand the best chance at:

ITDS: 48
Lee Brookland: 45
Two Rivers 4th: 38
Ludlow Taylor: 41
Stokes French Brookland: 40

[b]It's hard because looking at recent years is really wonky[/b] -- we wouldn't have gotten in anywhere in 2020 but I think people just didn't move around much that year because of the uncertainty of Covid. Would have gotten into several in 2021 but possibly none of them in 2022. It's just hard to know what to think our chances are and whether to think about moving, get comfortable with our IB and hope for better luck next year, etc. If our numbers were slightly better I'd feel more confident that we'd get in somewhere.[/quote]

Completely. The data over the last few years makes it very difficult to meaningfully predict anything. My guess is you will get into TR4.[/quote]
