[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We received guidance from our k-8 to only apply to schools where we were willing to send your kid. (Vs. applying simply for the sake of having options or safeties). That should help to narrow the list as the process is a bit laborious for both you and the kid, especially now that several schools reinstated standardized tests. [/quote] This. Our k-8 advisors were also very good at giving us a sense of how many kids would likely be accepted at various schools for all of 9th grade. We took a school off our list because we understood they were only taking 20ish new kids total and DC was sort of lukewarm after the open house. The number of schools you apply to is very kid/family specific so feedback here is going to be all over the place. Your school is your best resource for settling on a final number of schools to apply. [/quote]
