[quote=Anonymous]You can do all of the research and attend all of the open houses, but at the end of the day --- it's still a lottery. I have friends who "lost" the lottery the first year and "won" it the next. If you are limiting your school choices to the top, most desired schools then the chances of your child getting in are very low. If you're willing to branch out and add some schools who might not have the highest testing scores, etc. then your chances are better. Otherwise, I would take the advice of other posters and move out of the city or send your child to a private school. [/quote]
