[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FWIW, we decided to not send in such a letter, although we have a 85%-certain choice.  We did not want to be in a position of not honoring a commitment, regardless of whether it's binding, and if that's to our DC's disadvantage, so be it.  Plus, who knows whether a decision looks differently when actually faced with real choices.[/quote]

This is exactly right. You may be even more certain than that, and then between the time you applied and the time your child gets in, things change, the child changes, whatever. Unless you are beyond certain that, no matter what, it's your first choice, I think it's unwise to say that. I also don't think it helps very much to say it's your first choice at this stage.

I agree.   With only 1 month to go---is it low test score results that are all the sudden making one freak out and try a last ditch effort?  What changed from deadlines in early December to now to all the sudden have an epiphany that a school is a first choice. Most shadows were done long ago.[/quote]
