[quote=Anonymous]Actually you absolutely tell the other school about Hunter R2.  Your chances of getting in to Hunter are still only 20 percent if you make it to R2 but making it to Hunter R2 increases your chance of being taken by the private school of your choice.  Why—b/c to make it to Hunter R2 you need to score around the 99th percentile in an IQ test.  Except for HM and Riverdale, most privates don’t administer entrance tests anymore.  It’s very comforting for these other schools to know the kid has scored in the top one percent of an IQ test.

Are you in private pre school?  If so discuss with your pre school director who will inform the private schools.  If not, in your first choice letter be as specific and comprehensive as possible about why you love your school of choice.  Then tell them that you are in Hunter R2 and would accept that offer if received only for financial reasons and assure them (if true and only if true) that you are applying to no other public schools apart from Hunter.
