i'm not saying there are no kids who come up with the idea to go to boarding school. but it is rare, and also might be a very tough sell if your parents aren't on-board. you read some of the posts here, and you would literally have to be the most thoughtful, well-spoken thirteen year old in human history to write them.

good luck with your applications, and i mean that seriously. i hope you like it better than i did. one thing you should try to do (that i didn't) is go on a lot of second visits and ask good questions of as many kids as possible: not stupid stuff like "how is the food" or whatever, but more along the lines of "do you like it; do most people like it; what specifically do you like/dislike; should i come here/would you come here again?".
