[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted this on the other YY thread as well so I apologize. So there are 72 spots. I'm very curious how many of those went to siblings. If the jumbo preK was two years ago and many people have their children spaced 2 years apart I can imagine that a lot of those spots went to siblings (maybe 1/3?)

It is making me feel a whole lot less confident about my top 10 WL number, especially since we know that #s 1 and 2 will definitely accept.

I think I will drink, but out of sheer anxiety.  Certainly feel it is way too early to celebrate.[/quote]

You will have to call the school and ask how many spots went to sibs.  Historically around 1/2 went to sibs/founders but that was before the jumbo class and news about DCI.  I almost suspect they listed the acceptances so that people can't tell the # that went to sibs.[/quote]

I recognize the names of a few younger sibs, it's all in alphabetical order - unless you know them you can't tell if they got in via sibling preference or the lottery.  However, I'd be genuinely shocked if HALF went sibs (and there just aren't that many founders btw, not to mention that of those there are, they're all in the school already).  That happened exactly one time, for SY 2010-2011, when 25 of the 50 spots went to sibs.  Even at its current size, there are not enough 4 y.o. sibs at YY to take 36 seats.  [/quote]
