[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’ve looked through a bunch of old posts to try to understand this but I haven’t been able to so far. Apologies if this is frequently discussed and I have somehow missed it. My DS will be applying to high schools next year. We haven’t worked out exactly which ones yet, though we have some ideas. The school websites tell you what you need to submit and do to apply, but there isn’t really anywhere that states what the criteria for admissions are (for example, we are from another country where admissions at high school are all about test scores, and that doesn’t seem to be the case here). Since it seems a bit unclear how the school will decide, I don’t know to rate his chances at admission, and therefore how many schools he should apply to. Do most people apply to 3 schools? 6 schools? 12 schools? Just looking for a ballpark and a way to try to understand the process. Thank you![/quote] I've heard to apply to 5. [/quote]
