[quote=Anonymous]We are an underprivileged family who went through admissions when covid happened. I knew absolutely nothing and remember answering one of those questions as "This is the best school and I want the best for my child." I had no help during the process, didn't know a single person who had gone through it and relied on DCUM as my Q&A to help me navigate it. Some schools had a very good admissions team that could immediately tell we were not like other families and adjusted their line of questioning and one even called me back to ask follow up questions. Other schools went down their checklist, accepted our poor responses and WL my child. I'm sure if it wasn't for her grades and test scores, she would have been flat out rejected at these schools.
