[quote=Anonymous]I have seen this work. A kid applied to 5+ schools for 6th and was admitted to none coming from public. Grandparents contacted the development office at each school prior to admissions for 7th and kid was admitted to 3/5 schools. Of note, the kid has somewhat struggled at this school during high school---mostly B's, a few C's. Ultimately, the schools are pretty good at predicting who will thrive and if parents force an override during admissions it doesn't always work out best for the student. [/quote]
