<p>We’re seeing some over the top nastiness here, and it really should stop. Dzuniga, there is really no call to classify the kids who did get in as “really good test takers…who cheat.” Good grief!</p>
<p>And Zelda, I’m just another sad grown woman living through her kid much and calling out a “mean and nasty” youthful poster on an internet forum, but FYI, this forum tends to be a civil and safe place where potential students, students, parents, and alumni offer information and support. Your attack on ellebud, madeleine (who is, I think, a student), shredder and all “grown women” who participate here was pretty ugly. You would do well to attempt their level of empathy.</p>
<p>Also, when someone kicks someone else when they’re down, both on the playground and on internet forums, it’s just fine for parents, students, children, and passers by to speak up.</p>
