I hope that Walls will be more transparent then previous years about their admission process. Who are you going to ask about this? Suggestions. DC just received the same message and a 3.6 from Deal. I heard that they are trying to figure out ways to get more kids from Wards 7 and 8 and this new admissions policy was supposed to help them achieve their "diversity" goals.

Not sure how to calculate
Math A-
Sci B-
Hist A-
French A-
Eng A
The old fashioned way where minuses meant -.3, I think that 3.56 is the average. Does anyone know what the cutoff was for the interviews?

My daughter got an interview. It went to my spam folder, I wouldn't have checked spam for days if it didn't know emails were going out.
Thanks DCUM!

My DC had almost straight A's so I have no understanding what this means.

Yes, e-mail arrived. DS didn't make it. The school is not a good fit for DS, but he wanted to try. Wilson it is.

It’s a small crowded school. So unless a large percent opt all virtual or OSSE relaxes their requirements I would say no. Most likely hybrid.
