I understand that, but why would the school accept someone who can't even play the part for an hour to get their kid into their prefered school?
100% agree.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.

(Ok here goes, I think im about to get my hat smashed like a chossen by an aufruf. “Who does the rosh mosed think he is?!” “Why cant they accept me the way I am?!” Just play along, play along)
I won't smash your hat even a little but I don't think it's a good idea to send your child to a school that's not a good fit for you.

Agreed. While many complain about Roshei Mosad being unreasonable, people seeking schools in which their child will be all the way to one side of the spectrum isn’t good either.

Overall the system regulates itself but certainly some get burned.

Is there a letter from your Senator you attach with the application? Someone on DDMS said they did that and it arrived in a week

Cheaper than viggy or also cheap?

Remember, part of being cheap is being innovative. I have a 2015 Camry where the front blinker is inside the bumper, attach with a bracket that is part of the bumper. Somehow the blinker bracket cracked off the bumper, the "right" way to fix it is to replace the bumper for $350. Both Viggy and Sruly offered to glue it back for $50, others I asked only wanted to replace the bumper.
I wonder what people who type "u" instead of "you" do with all their free time.
