[quote=Anonymous]I also don't believe that it is totally random. I know many kids who got spots at both. To me, it seems to indicate that these kids are the truly "gifted" ones and are being identified from within the lottery pool. There are just too many cases where a kid was in pool for CES and both magnets and got into all three, and another kid was also in the lottery for all three and didn't get into any. I don't think it's as simple as one kid is lucky and one is unlucky. I think it means the lottery pool is indeed big -- which allows them to pick and choose kids from certain schools or demographics for balance -- however they are hand-picking kids from the pool to fill the spots.
