[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][b]It's not a "double-blind lottery" because that's not an actual thing.[/b] (A drug trial can be double-blind: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blinded_experiment#Double-blind_trials) But it is a lottery -- it's just that the number of entries is smaller than it would be if they didn't fill some places with students who are judged to have a special need for the HB environment. The kid I know who got in this way is on the spectrum, for example.[/quote] APS calls it that... random, double-blind system -- applications are randomly assigned numbers and numbers are randomly drawn.
