I am surprised that many UWSers on UB this year are talking about applying to NEST. No one I know going through this last year or the year before even considered it. Most ranked as follows: A, ps9, ps166, ps163. no NEST or TAG among them. Are people going to be seriously kicking themselves come the fall? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

I hope to be kicking myself. We weighed the pros and cons and decided it was worth it for us. If we are wrong we will regroup and try for something else for 1st grade (our zoned school is good so that can be a fallback) [ Reply | More
