My child took it on MLK day and said the same thing. Glad that he did not miss any. Not sure about the rationale. Isn’t it unfair to those who are stronger in math?
I see the waitlist has been updated and my student’s position (non-entering year) did not move much. They have been General #1 on the waitlist for Beaubien RGC (Initial Selection) and I added Pritzker RGC today (Rolling Waitlist) which was just updated as General #1. Do you know which one will be priority? We have thought to accept the Beaubien offer (I know they have an opening based on the email communication) but if Pritzker has an opening, which one do we receive? Also, any comparison between the two schools? We have to suffer from traffic either way and so a school with better/competitive curriculum would be ideal.
Hi, finally it is 5/1 and I see something changed as of 10AM like previously grayed-out Rolling Waitlists are now activated and the View Results link that has been disappeared re-appeared. However, View Results shows just the exact same information as what was shown before 4/19 (that is, no movement in my student’s waitlist position). Does it mean that there has really been no change? Or probably it is temporary?
Based on my experience last year, the late taker exam result was published after the RW opened and therefore we had to miss the chance to enroll my kid in RW as soon as it opened.
I see. Thank you for sharing. Hope the late takers wouldn’t impact in the initial RW. He was actually a late taker last year and the test scores were not even published until mid-June as far as I recall. If the timeline remains consistent, probably his positions will only get better until late takers’ test scores are announced.
Please forgive my ignorance. My 5th grader(applying to 6th) was given General #1 in a waitlist from an RGC and some less promising spots from a few other classical schools and RGC. As of today, they all got disappeared on GoCPS and it just says RW will open 5/1. Here are my questions.
1. Is the waitlist position only going better or at worst staying the same? Or is it ever possibe that new students cut in front of him?
2. What is the purpose of waitlists until yesterday? They never moved since they were announced and it directly moved to RW that is currently hidden. Is the purpose just to give parents the sense of reality and help them set the expection from RW?
Thank you!
