[quote=Anonymous]It seems to me that this lottery was an all or nothing deal. Either you have a great number, which not only gave you a top choice, and potentially great wait list numbers for higher choices. Or you have an average number, are wait listed for your top choices (probably high numbers), and are matched to your IB school (that's where we stand). Or you have a terrible number, you didn't get anything, and you are at the bottom for EVERY wait list. How can this be fair for parents? I would welcome the anarchy of separate lotteries for EVERY school. Terrible for the schools, but at least you could count on perhaps one good lottery position for something. Oh, and one more thing. I hope this person didn't win the Nobel prize for this algorithm. Really? Nobel Prize? [/quote]
