[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kid did not have an essay question about why they'd like to go to a magnet school.

I think I already had this confirmed on a different thread - that not ALL the ES kids tested had the essay element.[/quote]
I am the poster about the non scoring section with questions, it is interesting that you confirm that not all students had that section, because the acceptance letter we got clearly says that the non scoring section was accounted for while making the selection.

I am trying to wrap my head around this: a "non-scored" section was "accounted for while making the selection." (This FAQ seems to confirm your point:

It sounds to me like an oxymoron. What am I missing here? I thought non-scored implies optional. How can something optional be used for making the in/out decision?
