[quote=Anonymous]I'll add my experience: we chose about eight schools that were in NE (where we live) that had programs we thought looked good, including some notably hard-to-get-into ones (Yu Ying) but without making an effort to make sure there were any really safe bets in there. My son attended a daycare where I worked that he could continue at, if necessary, through kindergarten. We didn't get into anything. But we got decent-ish waitlist numbers on two schools, and decided to wait it out. The summer came and went, and our numbers moved. The school year started. September came and went. And in October, we made it to the bottom of the list for one of the schools, transferred in, and are really happy. So, in our case, it helped to have a primary plan we could fall back on, giving us time to wait out the waitlists in the fall.[/quote]
