[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] [b]Students are ranked on the schools' side - first by preference and then by lottery # within each preference.[/b] It's just that other than the application high schools, there is no ranking based on performance in school. But it functions the same way as the residency model.[/quote] This is a really important point. The "stable marriage problem" requires that both parties rank the other side. What OP is proposing is that DC use something other than the existing preferences plus lottery number. OP hasn't precisely explained how that ranking would work, other than it would give extra weight to having ranked a school #1.[/quote]
