[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]DD with MAP-M and MAP-R in the 99th percentile.  Placed in both lotteries, selected for neither.  Low-Moderate FARMS school.  Straight A's.  Asian.

Looks like there are more posts of people who did not get picked than those who got picked.  Would love to know profile of kids who got selected to confirm that this was a true lottery.[/quote]

I hardly doubt its a true lottery.[/quote]

They clearly stated it's a lottery of the top 15%. Look up lottery and the dictionary if you don't understand how these work.[/quote]

Because the kids from our ES were not the top students but one of the parents had connections and it was interesting the kids selected were all friends.  There were much brighter kids who should have been sent.  These were good smart kids but they were not at the top.

The 15% is now absurd.[/quote]

What year are you talking about? Before the lottery? It wasn’ta lottery before the 2020-2021 school year.[/quote]
