[quote=Anonymous]When there are hundreds of kids applying for just a few spots, don't under-estimate the power of personality. I've heard the admissions people at my children's school talking about the process and they've said things like, "remember that kid who was dancing outside? I really liked him." Kids don't always understand that their behavior (and not just outlandishly bad behavior) makes a difference. For high school, confidence and the child's ability to interview well is also a big deal. For PK, if you have a child who will make eye contact and talk to just about anyone - chances are they will do well.[/quote]
