[quote=Anonymous]I talk to prospective parents at events both prior to and after they admitted. Presuming you and your child seem interested and engaged during various sessions, essays that make you or your family stand out, any relationships from the school you are coming from/ demonstrated history of successprevious students from your present school have had there, and then a bunch of random factors may come into play (would we prefer more boys to balance out the class? have a LGbTQ family? does the applicant live in a geographic area atypical from where most students come from?) and/or if you explicitly state that the school is your #1 choice may impact decisions, which can and do vary from year to year.[/quote]
