[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Merit based for some but not all is bot really merit based now is it?  [/quote]

Tell that to the thousands of kids who get rejected on a yearly basis from tier 1 high schools (public and private).  As another poster said: job, college, school ... even marriage ... someone else can get the guy or girl.  The system is as much merit as it is the untangible of a certain way the application came through to the panel.  Maybe the teacher summary of the CO was mediocre compared to the other applicants, maybe the parent referral write-ups failed to provide a good picture of the child and what he/she can get out of LIV and also bring to LIV.  Could be a lot of things.  Unless people start posting those applications publicly, it's very difficult to say why a child is rejected.  For all we know, the OP's child's application could have been very mediocre in comparison to the 20 others the set of panellists were screening.  And in that case, it is a 'merit based' system.  You just dislike the result.  But the family that was accepted could have a totally different view.  [/quote]
