[quote=Anonymous]No inside info here either, but my assumption is the opposite. The most competitive schools know that 1) families will apply to multiple schools and 2) attractive kids will be accepted at multiple schools. Since a kid cannot ATTEND multiple schools they will get some no's. Over the years they will have gotten a feel for how many no's and they will conservatively overaccept (not 40 kids for 20 slots, but certainly 25 kids for 20 slots). My only data point is that at my kid's school there are some grades that are bigger than average - I assume they got fewer no's than expected.[/quote]
