[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]If you're at a top private K-8, it can be very difficult. If you're also a sibling or a huge donor, it's easier but not a slam-dunk. If you're not from a top private, then its very very difficult. [/quote] This is not true at all. My kids are all lifers, and the majority of their friends who have entered in entry years have come from public (a variety of arlington, mclean, nw). They only know a couple of kids who have come from k-8s into 9th. None of their friends have been from big donor families or vips. We also know a fair amount of sibling and alum children who have been rejected.[/quote]
