There are close to 1200 boys graduating 8th grade this year and most will be going locally to the 35 plus mesivtos in Lakewood. A small percentage of boys go out of town. On average most bar mitzva boys apply to 3-4 mesivtos due to the high demand to get in. The farhers started 2 weeks ago and continue over next week. Boys have to decide quickly once they get accepted. There is about 70 more boys than open slots for this coming year.
