[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How are people feeling? What is your plan if your kid doesn't get in anywhere or doesn't get into an appealing or top choice? We only applied to 3 and our plan is the local public. I don't feel stressed about it bc I don't think public would be all that bad - though obviously a top private would be a more rigorous, well-resourced experience for my kid. [/quote]

Applied for a few of schools which are all trashed by this site. So not worried. Maybe dodged a few bullets. Who knows? [/quote]
DC is at a school routinely trashed on this site and loves it. It’s been phenomenal for them. Good luck for your results! [/quote]

Thank you for saying this. Some parents think that if a school isn’t X, Y or Z, it is garbage. Different schools are good fits for different kids! If someone has to trash other schools to make their DC’s school seem superior, maybe it isn’t really superior after all.

My DC actually turned down a school that is often touted as better than the rest for another that was a better fit. DC is happy, thriving and is able to have experiences that they could not have had at the other school. Embrace the differences and good luck! [/quote]
