[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]no way even close for 9th grade sidwell. there is a thing called a wait list.[/quote] I was wondering this--why would they admit more kids than they have spots? What if all accept?![/quote] That never happens. STA and NCS even Sidwell may have higher yield rates so they know historically how many to accept to achieve their desired class size. There's also selection bias in the applicant pool; a lot of kids do not apply to the top schools because they would not get in or it would not be a good fit.[/quote]
