[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]my understanding (from a conversation with myschools) but I may have misunderstood, is that if you get into school #5 you will be waitlisted at schools #1-#4 and you will NOT be waitlisted at schools #6-#12 Yes you are correct. That is how it will work. [/quote] Yes. And this is how it worked last year as well when it was just a DCPS lottery (no charters). This is why it's important to rank your true preferences. You may have only a snowball's chance in hell to get into, say, Inspired Teaching. But if you rank it #4 and you get into your #3 school, you are dead to Inspired Teaching. You don't exist in their system. That's why Mundo Verde stated, "Rank us #1 to increase your chances." Not because listing it as #1 gives you a special consideration in the lottery.[/quote]
