Can I get into Lawrenceville, Andover, Deerfield, or Exeter?
I have discussed and thoroughly thought about my decision to a boarding school with my parents. We ended up agreeing to send me to boarding school; that is, if I get accepted. I aim to go to the more 'elite' schools versus the ordinary boarding schools. Do I have a chance to get into any of the following schools?
Academics-
7th grade: All A's except B in Algebra
2 HS credit classes: Spanish I and Algebra (two years ahead of regular math)
8th grade: All A's
2 HS credit classes: Spanish II and Geometry
Current(9th grade): Biology, Algebra II, Intermediate Band, Strings Ensemble, Physical Education, Honors English, Honors World History.
Extracurricular:
- Varsity tennis team
- Varsity track team
- Model UN
- Student Council 9th grade representative
- Speech/Debate team
- SHARE club (community service)
Outside of School:
- I am currently composing a music and writing a novel.
- I love to hang out with my friends
- I absolutely love to read fiction books! (;
- I volunteer at a local hospital
As far as the interview, I am certainly not concerned. My only concern is about the SSAT; I have not taken it before, and I am not sure if I will get in the 90th percentile or not! Also, I will be applying for financial aid. Btw, I don't know if this factor will give me a less chance of getting accepted, but I am Korean.
What are some advice you can give me in order to have a better chance to get accepted?
