Confused? Yes a school review too good may not be necessarily good for you.

There are several restaurants in the city where you live. But you have a favorite joint or a few more that you would visit whenever you are hungry. So does that in any way mean that your favorite joint is the best one? So you will write a great review about it when asked.

You have guests at home, but you will take them to a restaurant that you think is expensive, popular and may be far away from your home. When asked you will be readily willing to write a great review about it. But will you be going there more often after your guest has long gone? I doubt.

You are comfortable eating in a relaxed manner in the restaurant that is of your type. Your type restaurant means the one where you will find most customers looking, dressed or talking similar to you. Where you are not intimidated by the decor, waiters, receptionists or other customers. You want to eat good food, but in such a restaurant like the one just described, the food eats you.

So why on earth am I talking about the restaurants? Is there a connection between the school and restaurant psychology!

Yes, as a matter of fact, the psychology plays a very big role all the time.

So even when a friend of yours is praising a school and talking really high about a school, chances are that it’s a good fit for his children and his family. Should you get influenced and run after the same school?

If you share all the family background, values, educational needs like your friend’s then yes you too may be happy in such a school.

But if you feel uncomfortable and intimidated in such schools, it’s not meant for your child.

So the moral I am harping on is that do not ask your neighbors about the best suitable schools for your child, chances are that you will take a wrong decision.

So when you read a good review about a school, it does not mean it is best fit for YOU. But it definitely is the best fitting school for someone.
