[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We are considering whether to apply our DC next year to 4th form from an area private, or to wait until 7th grade. I am getting the sense that perhaps its easier to get in at 7th? Do others have perspective on this? It seems like so many spots are taken by Beauvoir boys at 4th that 7th may be easier. But then again, there may be more applicants at 7th. [/quote] I guess it all depends on what type of student your DS is. So he's in 2nd grade now? Does he have strong standardized test scores? The longer you wait the more emphasis will be placed on grades, test scores, and teacher recs. At 4th & 7th it looks like about 16 new boys enter. As PP said contact Hart Roper (Admisssions Director), he's extremely easy to talk to. I'm sure he keeps demos about the number of boys who enroll at these entry grades who are unconnected. [/quote]
