[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We were going to apply for 9th to GDS and the admission officer pretty much told us there are 7 spots for new 9th grade boys. We crossed it off our list...[/quote] Are you serious? How is this possible? Don't they accept roughly 35 new students for 9th grade?[/quote] The only explanation is that 20 of those admits were athletic recruits or something, which is possible. I don’t think GDS has strong sibling preference though. [/quote] GDS has[b] crazy strong[/b] sibling preference. They have a separate application for siblings. It's due in December. Last year something like all but five 9th grade boy spots went to siblings. You can ask admissions about it--they were quite forthcoming. I'm not sure if the poster above (the one saying there are 7 spots) is talking about this year or not. If it's this year, it's a repeat of last year. [/quote]
