[quote=Anonymous]We were applying at 5th grade and it was an entry year at one school and not at the other. We initially really preferred the school at which it was not an entry year. We applied pretty much knowing that there was no space at all for our child, especially considering that any space that came open would go to the opposite gender. So we ended up with what had been our 2nd choice. DC is so happy with so many wonderful friends and teachers that I can't even imagine how I could have thought another school would have been better. The other school has invited us to apply for 6th where they do expand, but I can't imagine leaving. Plus the commute is better with lots of carpooling and the tuition is less expensive. I think an important element is that we only applied to 2 schools which we really really liked. We were fortunate to have a good fallback (staying at current school) if it didn't work out.[/quote]
