[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If your kid was wait listed at 8 schools and all his classmates with worse grades, less extracurricular got into the schools he applied, you would be fuming, knowing how spoiled you are.[/quote]

Not the PP you are attacking but why spoiled? That seems like an odd choice of words. If his classmates had worse grades and less of other things schools say are important and got in over her son, wouldn't anger be a normal response?  If you were up for a promotion and were the one best qualified and had worked your butt off for it, and your boss took your less qualified co-worker, I would expect you to be angry as well. [/quote]

Sorry, I was referring to the PPs saying how dare he thought he would get into one of those 8 schools. He is that good: he would be #1 in Sidwell, STA, Maret, GDS.... though not TJ. If he was their own kid, those PPs would be totally pissed.

All his teachers, counselors and principal said they were shell shocked. OP is right, it is scandalous.

Thanks for clearing that up. Makes more sense now. Didn't mean to make you feel attacked; just curious.[/quote]
