[quote=Anonymous]What’s something small that made you abandon the admissions process at a school, or if your kid is old enough for visits, convinced them not to apply? Mine: 1) we walked toward the cafeteria and hot lunch smelled odd. Once we were in the cafeteria, it smelled so badly that I became faint and swayed on my feet. I never was able to match the smell to any specific meal- it was spicy and burned and metallic all at once. 2) was touring for K and they took us to the common area during upper school break. One girl was sitting all by herself looking down at her phone in tears right in front of us while another group was huddled around theirs laughing and whispering and looking up at her. The tour guide was oblivious. I was so upset I snuck out while we were walking to another building.[/quote]
