[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think you're not understanding what the proposed combined lottery will do. It will dramatically REDUCE the total number of schools parents can lottery for. It is the opposite of scattershot. The idea is to force parents to lottery only for the schools they are very serious about. Like the DCPS lottery, you will not be waitlisted on schools you ranked lower than where you get in. Theoretically at least, it should reduce the number of applicants for any one school, improving your odds at the schools you do try for. [/quote] What are you basing that assessment of how it will work on? Where is the exact language of the lottery proposal? What is the algorithm that it will run on? Specifics, please...[/quote]
