I know one of the two schools intimately and know that you’re incorrect. This, presumably should be been obvious based on the general incoherence of your post.

I know one (Maret) intimately too. And the class my kid is in is not the brightest group. But they are rich!

I think OP means based on grades and "status". For most Maret is not the first choice for an ace student. Gonzaga does not need A's to get in. Let's not get into this again. Geez. You sound very touchy and sensitive.

“Gonzaga for the sports and Maret for the location.”

What does this mean?

Don't be ridiculous. Everyone knows that 42 is the answer to everything.

42 slots open tomorrow. Who knows what schools and grades though.

I can’t believe I got that so wrong. 🤣 Please don’t take away my Douglas Adams fan club membership!

Do you have other options? Love the school that loves you. Find ways to be excited about the other doors that can open for your child. There will be other benefits.

Never hurts to call and express continuing interest.


Okay. Thank you.

Possible? yes. Likely? no.
