Swami says if you don't have preference at any of these schools, you'll have a top 40 WL number at Langley and get in by July 15th. You'll go to the playdates until then with the confidence of my Swamiing behind you.

Swami regrets to report you will be the one that gets simply terrible unbelievable numbers in the 300s, but get into your guaranteed IB (assuming it is Wheatley). You will add AT:Oklahoma and Lee East End in the post-application period, and get into Lee East by the 4th of July.

Swami thinks you will get in to Langley, then Seaton by Memorial Day, and then add Mundo 8th Street in a post-lottery application after the waitlist starts to move aggressively in July after confirming that at least the air-conditioning works there.

Swami says you will get a top 50 waitlist number at BASIS and squeak in under the wire. You will enroll in that STEM camp you were considering just in case.

Although tomorrow, your numbers will look mostly bleak, Swami says you will benefit from the Kindergarten and 1st grade shuffle that happens EOTP and will come out ahead with an ITS offer... but in September when they finally decide to move their waitlist.

There is a sufficiency in the world for man's need but not for man's greed. All signs point to BASIS and a fretful summer of thinking maybe Deal after all.
