[quote=Anonymous]I don't understand the smug condescension -- other than, I suppose, it is DCUM.

Plenty of us live in neighborhoods with inbound high schools we have determined are under-performing or in some other way a poor fit for our kid.  And right now we are waiting for a) application high schools; b) lottery results; and c) private school admissions and financial aid.  With the final choice of moving should none of those options work out.

I have no idea how to gauge whether my student's very strong grades from 7th are good enough for them to land in the interview pool -- kids apply from a range of middle schools, charters and privates  and I bet they all have different approaches to grading.  Knowing if they are on the interview list is helpful information and I think it is natural for parents and students to be anxious and stressed.

Many thanks to the poster who noted the interview training dates for current Walls students.  It is helpful to have a rough time frame in mind.  "February-March" on the school website is too broad to be informative.
