I really don't like Lower Lab. Would I be crazy to send dd to PS6 over LL? Anderson is our 1st choice and we'd definitely go there if she gets in, but I just don't know about LL. [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

We visited and didn't love it either. Hope you get Anderson, but I hear PS 6 is very good also. [ Reply | More ]

op - it's good to hear these responses. Of course it's still just a hypothetical decision, but I feel like everything will think I'm nuts if I turn down a g&t. [ Reply | More ]

You ranked it but are planning on rejecting it if you get assigned to LL? I got so much flak for that yesterday here on UB [ Reply | More ]

uhm, no. a wait list would suck big time. Too much gaming the system possible with that. I am very sure that the DOE is going to retest some kids and test some kids who newly moved to NYC. They will get the empty spots. [ Reply | More ]

I didn't think LL was impressive at all. Certainly no better than downtown schools like 89, 234 and 41. Plus the classes are huge! [ Reply | More ]

No, I have no problem with that. PhD's earned that title. I do have a problem with adjunct faculty wanting to be called "Professor", though. [ Reply | More ]

The two schools are philosophically different. Lower Lab is progressive and Anderson more traditional. [ Reply | More ]
