[quote=Anonymous]16:02 hits many of the factors for admission @ all three schools, ranging from your DC's WPPSI scores and nursery report as well as how many siblings, legacies, etc might be applying at same time as your DC. An additional factor, which is also beyond your control, is luck. This is a numbers game as there are more applicants than slots. One school may take 24 kids for K, yet you DK if more than half of those slots might go to siblings or legacies. So you may be looking at 5 girl and 7 boy slots as opposed to 12 and 12 for a K class. While the odds are daunting, don't necessarily be deterred. Go to the open houses, talk to parents of currently enrolled kids, and, because it is a numbers game, expand your pool of schools if you believe that your local public is not your Plan B. [/quote]
