[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]the deadline for acceptance is 3/18. Just have to wait until then. I wonder how many folks here put payment down at more than one school while they decide. This whole admissions process feels like a giant slap in the face. My son tests at 99 percentile, has a straight A report card, plays an instrument in an orchestra and has perfect pitch, plays hockey, football, and is on a competitive swim team. That's a lot for an 8 year old, third grader. His interview was fine they said. They told me all of the consoling things one would expect. Still, I find this insulting. [/quote] OP, sounds like you have a fantastic kid. He might be competing against other kids who are extremely bright, club team athletes who's parent may be an Alum. Just sayin' Washington is a VERY competitive town. It may be easier to get a clerkship than to get one of these spots. [/quote]
