[quote=Anonymous]OP, at this point in the lottery game you should use a lottery spot on Powell if you're interested in it. period. When you come to DCUM less than a week before the lottery closes to ask if a school is worth a lottery pick, you can't trust the answers. At this point, people have a vested interest and each less family that doesn't use a lottery spot on Powell (or whatever school) is one less competitor. So it's easy to tr ad dissuade you with a "snow ball's chance in hell" response in hopes of scaring you off. Yes, Powell waitlisted a bunch of inboundary families last year. But boundaries changed, there's another class and the recent baby boom flucuates year to year. Just pick the schools you want and stop worrying about whether you have a shot (unless all 12 of your lottery picks fall into that "highly unlikely" category...then you might have a problem).
