[quote=Anonymous]Hey, how about we just look at the FAQ on the MySchoolDC site! http://www.myschooldc.org/faq/#common-3 How does the My School DC common lottery work? Student-school matches are based on the number of spaces at each school; sibling, proximity, and other preferences; and each student’s choices. (Through the My School DC common lottery, the six DCPS specialized high schools admit students based on specific criteria.) When there are more students than spaces at a school, students who have a preference (such as a sibling preference) will be the first to be offered spaces. Then, random selection decides which other students will be offered spaces. Students will be matched with no more than one school. My School DC will try to match each student with their 1st choice, then their 2nd choice, and so on through the student’s list. **** Oh look, preferences matter![/quote]
