[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We applied to 3 private schools in DC (top 10) for fifth grade, which is not an entry year so we could only get in if one (or more) spots become available. What has been the experience of others in previous years? Did you get an offer or were you waitlisted? Did you get an offer in the second round? [/quote] We got an offer at 2 schools and were waitlisted at 2. Accepted one offer. We were coming from public and even though my kid had really good scores and grades I do think there is a public school bias. I do wonder whether our chances would have been better if we applied during 4th or 6th grade. We’re unhappy at our current school, applying again to one of the schools we were waitlisted at. This all feels never ending tbh [/quote]
