[quote=Anonymous]The school rankings made by other parents/student have absolutely no affect on your capability of accepting a seat in the lottery. The only thing has an affect on your acceptance is as follows: 1) Someone with a better preference requests the same seat 2) You get accepted at a higher ranked school. That's it. It doesn't matter what the rank of the school was in scenario #1. The algorithm ignores it. It's entirely possible that the kid accepted in scenario #1 moves on to another school (that he ranked higher) and you can get the seat back! That's how the algorithm works![/quote]
