[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Our top choice changed, and we dropped GDS altogether. [b]Their essay questions were so ridiculous[/b] and out of touch with actual normal human children that we decided the school wouldn't be a good fit for our family. Also, their inflexibility on allowing any access to the school was a turnoff. Some schools at least offered limited access - on weekends, masked and vaccinated, etc. The overall vibe of "we're so amazing, you're lucky we're even considering letting you spend $50k on us, sight unseen" is ok for some, but we just couldn't.[/quote] Same. We got the very strong impression that it would not be a good fit for our family and decided not to bother. We are totally unconnected, so likely wouldn’t have gotten in anyway. [/quote]
