Why not Andover/Exeter/Hotchkiss? Aim high! It looks like you have the aptitude and the attitude to be successful at any school. Your SSAT scores will probably not be the determining factor in a schools decision on your acceptance since you are a great student.

Ooh, nice statement eyebrow "aptitude and attitude."
Back to subject, I think April is in the running, but nothing to make the Admissions roundtable go crazy seeing it. I think you can pull it off with sterling essays and an articulate interview.

Seems like you stand a good chance, especially at Kent or Loomis.

Are you coming from a competitive school? Private or public? are you taking advanced level classes?!
More info!
