[quote=Anonymous]Schools that have admission years (like 3rd grade) or expansion years (like 6th or 7th grade) are looking for diversity in where they bring in children from. (If you don't believe this, look at what the schools publicize about incoming classes for such years -- it will typically say that new students are coming from 12 different schools, born in 40 different states, represent 32 countries, etc.) Thus, if your DC is one of few (or the only) strong candidate from a public school, you have at least as good a chance of getting in than an applicant who is one of many from the same lower school.
