You got into all of them via lottery? Only one kid? Which school did you rank #1?
I ranked MV #1 and got in off the WL, but got calls for all of these.

And we did the opposite! Maybe we got each other's spots

+1 Another family that turned down CM. Glad people are happy there; we're happy too at a different school.

+1 Although it will be interesting to see how many turn it down now that you actually have to rank it high to get in at all (or have an insanely good number if you don't rank it high). 3 years ago I think they went into the 20s or 30s on the PK4 waitlist. So yes, people do turn popular schools down, although again it will be interesting to find out (probably only on DCUM, since the lottery doesn't publish it) how far down the waitlist the schools in the original post seem to go.

Funny. ITS impressed us the most. Even though we really wanted Spanish, we ended up ranking ITS #1. Where did you go instead?

I turned down ITS last year because I preferred to stay at Maury. Convenience was definitely a significant factor, plus my child would have been upset about leaving friends.
