[quote=Anonymous]Everyone keeps saying “we are so lucky to have so many good options here” but we are not feeling like that’s true. DS wants coed so that wipes a huge chunk of “options” off the table right out of the gate. We are applying to six because the competition at some is so fierce that it’s laughable. We have 6 gives from our class alone applying to a school that will likely only add 20 kids total. Competing with kids from our school feels really awful because everyone is analyzing everyone else’s odds to try to gauge their own chances. So it’s a lot of work for a bit of crapshoot, it’s creating tensions in the class (maybe that’s more on the parent side), and we aren’t crazy excited about any of the options. Looking forward to being on the other side of this process. [/quote]
