  1. If you forget ןתן טל ומטר then you still need to go back. If you’re not sure if you said it, you don’t need to go back.

  2. It would be smart to allow any "New school" for the first few years to be able to accept girls before the other schools so they can establish themselves as a "good" school. Having them wait with the rest of the schools will only cause them to get leftover students. Thereby becoming a mediocre school where no-one wants to go. In short it is beneficial for everyone to respect a new school and give them first dibs. As we need more of the so called "Good Schools".

  3. The problem wasn't accepting. What happened was that first there was put out a rumor that there was a shortage of 150 slots. Then one school accepted first and forced parents to give answers within 24 hours before they were even interviewed by other schools . If that school was your first choice , then no problem . But if a girl wanted to have the opportunity to attend another school , then she was essentially being forced and blackmailed that if you dont take our slot today , you might be one of those 150 girls without a slot and we won't take you when everybody else accepts, even if you decide to come to our school. If that was your daughter ,you would not he too happy with such an ultimatum . And this school was making 4 parallel classes so this was done to 120 girls.
