I don't think the principals want everyone calling. That would be insane for them.

People who were told to push, the schools probably know they wont get in anywhere for whatever reason.

Last year answers went out in June even though schools were ready before then. I'm assuming same this year.

My fathers chavrusa is part of the vaad. I will ask him to ask for me


So my father asked and was told that he doesn't get involved until the first round is over. He hasn't heard of any changes to the process at this time.

Enlist the help of your daughter's principal. Daven. And don't worry. Our local high schools are not only made up of top students. It's not all about grades.

Is there enough seats this year?

What is the point of the test? I heard that they are marked but they don't give out the answers to anyone so what is the point?

working in a HS, I cant even begin to tell you the stress level of the principals and owners with the insane amount of applications that are in and the amount of acceptances that have to be made...Its unbelievable how much they are trying to stretch themselves...

My dd told me her teacher spoke to the class today about high school acceptance. That they should understand it has nothing to do with them or their family if they don't get in. And she told them that answers aren't going out yet, she will speak to them about it again when the time comes.

So I guess we still have to wait.......

Someone just told me there are still 100 girls who are not accepted to any schools. And there really isn't enough space for them all.

I know. It's terrible for the girls and the teachers. I don't know what the answer is.

Maybe it gives the high schools a ballpark guess at a girl's academic level.

HOWEVER.

I personally performed very poorly on my hs entrance exam - it was on material that was on a higher academic level than my elementary school.

I went to a very academic high school (B"H they accepted me anyway, pull, whatever) and I was an A student. I discussed this once with my hs principal, who agreed that the entrance exam isn't a good indicator of how a student will perform. It just tells what she's at coming in.
