[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How many private schools do people typically apply to in order to get in somewhere?[/quote] There are a lot of factors that go into that decision - grade applying for (esp expansion year versus non-expansion year, but also things like K versus 9th), how competitive the schools are that you're applying to, and how strong your application is (especially if you have a hook). Our K-8 generally recommends 4-6 schools for 9th grade and I'm sure they expect that among those 4-6 there will be at least a couple that they think the student has strong odds of admission. IIRC, the guidance from our preschool was to apply to around 4 schools when we were applying to K, although that was 10 years ago. [/quote]
