[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Can someone please explain the steps to admission in order? Do you in fact have to rank it first of your lottery picks and only if you get picked in the lottery do you test and interview? Thank you so much as it's very confusing.[/quote]

Lottery has little bearing on SWW

1. Rank it as first.

2. Apply to the school

3. If child qualifies for admittance, he gets invited to test.

4. If test scores qualify child( there is not a standard qualifying score because they take a percentage of the top scorers), he gets invited to interview.

5. Finds out if accepted.

6. May or may not have time for a shadow day

Alternative scenario

1. rank it first

2. apply to the school

3. Child qualifies for admittance, but does not pass the test so is on bottom of waitlist OR

3. Child qualifies for admittance, but does not pass the interview, and is top of waitlist

4. Sometime after you can shadow, you get off the waitlist and assuming you are choosing between a school you like and a school you might love, you have a HUGE decision to make[/quote]
