[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone explain how for prek3 I got matched with a school as my #2 pick but others who put it as their #1 pick got waitlisted? [/quote] Imagine there is an ice cream shop with many flavors of ice cream. Chocolate is your favor, then vanilla and then strawberry and so on. If you got to the counter and they were out of your favorite, you would ask for your next favorite on your list. And every other person at the ice cream shop has their own personal list of favorite flavors in order. The lottery number you receive is the random sequence that you are called to the counter to place your order. When you are called to the counter, you run through your own personal list of favorite flavors until you get to the first one they have in stock. And then the next person is called to the counter to be served.[/quote]
