[quote=Anonymous]Oops -- please disregard my post about my kid being wait-listed at Eastern -- it's not pertinent to the HGC process because the open seats are filled by "lottery." But in my younger kid's year, 4 students from our school were accepted outright and two were waitlisted; one got in, the other didn't. The one who got in, had two older siblings who had been in the program and who then went onto to Takoma Park -- and so I don't know if it was just a coincidence that he happened to get one of the 6 open spots that were filled by lottery (and also, that same year, one of these spots was filled by the wait-listed twin of an accepted kid from a neigboring school). So I'm skeptical that waitlisted students are randomly selected to fill open spots. [/quote]
