1.0 out of 5 stars THIS IS NOT A BOOK!! IT IS A 17-PAGE JOKE!!, January 29, 2010
Amazon Verified Purchase(What's this?)
This review is from: Applying to Private Schools in NYC: A Guide (Paperback)
Please be aware that this product is not a real book. It is only a 17-page panflet, that has general information you can find in websites around internet. I couldn't believe Amazon had the audacity to sell this product and mislead us like this. Unbelievable.

1.0 out of 5 stars Should really be called a pamphlet, not a book, May 3, 2010

If you are a complete and totally neophyte with respect to this topic, you may glean something useful in this "book", but if you've done any research already and are looking for a deeper dive, you will not find it here.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great resource, March 1, 2010
This review is from: Applying to Private Schools in NYC: A Guide (Paperback)
Moving to New York City with three kids, I faced the overwhelming prospect of finding places in private schools for all of my children. This book is a "must-have" resource for all newcomers to the city. From asking questions that made me think about my children to check lists for managing the process, this short book gave me all the information and confidence I needed to make the impossible happen. The only thing it can use to improve it is an I-Phone app!
