[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So one of the so called Big 3 is a back up? That's pretty funny. If it's a back up for almost everyone who applies, exactly what the first choices? Sidwell and Albans/NCS certainly can't be everyone's first choice. LOL[/quote]

The poster who said GDS is viewed as a back up for most applicants/ everyone she knows who applies there is ridiculous  (& most likely a troll).

That being said, not everyone's first choice is one of the "Big 3". Believe it or not, there are students accepted at GDS who decline in order to attend schools other than Sidwell or STA/NCS. [/quote]

I wasn't suggesting that everyone's first choice is a Big 3. I was making fun of the absurdity of the posters comment that everyone who is applying to GDS (which happens to be a Big 3) doesn't apply because it's a first choice. I completely agree that many people don't pick Big 3 as their first choice; present company included. We applied to both GDS and Sidwell and neither was a 1st choice because we didn't think it was a right fit for our family. Simmer down, I was being factious more than anything. [/quote]
