[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So with so many kids marked as ineligible. How will the remaining 18 seats be filled? If given a waitlist number they'd simply have to wait and see. [/quote] They aren't "real" seats. The "seats" at these selective high schools represents the ceiling of the number of kids they can match on count day. It does not correlate to the actual number of seats the school plans to enroll/matriculate for the grade level. So the extra seats just disappear - because the school didn't identify a kid they wanted to match for them.[/quote] The challenge with your line of thinking (that may well be the actual reason) is that the test scores don't back up this theory of high performers. There are way too many kids just below grade level (or worse). Certainly there are other kids applying who would be no worse than those admitted? [/quote]
