    Great news Kriston! Glad we got some good news on this thread.

    I didn't know Explore scores would work for Davidson? Anyone done that with success? Maybe we'll try that in a couple years. We haven't come up with a good enough excuse to spend the big bucks to get DS fully assessed (he hit the ceiling on part of the NNAT). If we were committed to staying at our current school, we might.

    Congratulations, Kriston and Tara. Here's hoping Incogneato's and Cathy A's children all get in down the road. All the best!

    Yay, Tara!

    I'm so glad you're in! Not only for your son's sake, but because I didn't want Dottie to have to pull her son from the program, as she's threatened to do if your DS didn't get in!

    Nah, Dottie was just so sure your DS is PG, Tara, that she was certain he should get in.

    Luckily, DYS agreed and now Dottie can stay.

    However, I'm always happy to have any excuse for mooning Dottie. It brings great joy to my simple life.

    P.S. Aside from my DH, I've never actually mooned anyone in my life. And DHs don't count since they generally like that sort of thing.

    I just wanted to make that clear. In cyberspace, though, it's kind of fun to do!
