[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Does anyone else just have absolutely no clue what to think in terms of chances? We applied for PK and thought the interviews and playdates went well, but we do not have any hooks and understand the spots are very limited. It’s just kind of funny to me - normally when applying for something in my own life I’ve at least had a sense of whether I had a chance. With this I have absolutely no idea what to think. It’s a strange feeling. [/quote] [b]Your chances are almost 0 at the top schools unless you're a very wealthy, a famous person or have connections to the school.[/b] Almost everyone is in the same boat especially for the youngest kids when you don't have grades and an academic and extracurricular track record. It's not a good feeling because it's so random and the criteria are not clearly laid out.[/quote] This simply isn't true. We are none of these things and got into multiple highly regarded schools. Now, at one of them, I see that this myth above isn't the reality at these schools.[/quote]
