[quote=Anonymous]I would have spent much (MUCH, MUCH) less time stressing about the whole thing. Worried less about the ranking of the top charters, since any of them would have been great had we gotten in (glad we opted for commute as a priority anyway.) I'm also glad that, in the end, I spent some time running around to nearby public schools to make sure I was ranking the ones that were best for us. In the end, I decided only to list one ahead of our IB school, and we're probably not going to get in, but I feel good knowing that I didn't leave stones unturned there. (I know, I said I would have worried less, but I'm also glad I did that bit of last-minute worry.) Finally, start going to the open houses in December! Do them all as early as you can. You never know what insanity will crop up near the end (multiple snow days, nights you can't make it, the sudden need to go visit other public schools, etc.) Oh, and one final thought: try to limit your time on this forum! I definitely learned some useful information, but I should have spent the time on more productive things.[/quote]
