Just thought I'd add my opinion that if you have an excellent application the middle schools may reject you because they know you will go somewhere better. Happened to me and others I know, and to be honest it makes sense - they are busy people and don't need to be bothered with an extra interview. And though the rejection may sting in the short-term, in the long-term you'll get into a great school and you will have saved the time, effort and money of an extra interview.
I think it makes sense too. That's why it's safer to be "in the middle" if you're interested in "the middle schools."
