[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Went through this process last year. [b]DS got into[/b] every school applied to, including [b]a 'Big 3' [/b]and I don't know why and why some of his friends didn't. My son is well spoken, does not play a sport seriously and does great academically .. Like many of his friends. We're involved parents, but not anywhere near the amount other families. We donate but not as much as many others. Sometimes it's just how the chips fall and it has nothing to do with your son... I'm sure there's some extraordinary kids that earn their spots in the top schools and for others, [b]I think it's down to luck [/b]which of the great applicants get chosen. [/quote] It's definitely not luck.[/quote]
