As a recently accepted student, I honestly think that you are fine. They know that Andover is more rigorous than other schools, and the fact that you are challenging yourself with the hardest available classes serves as a testimony to your hard work and intelligence.

From talking to admissions officers, it seems that they stress the strength of your schedule more than how you actually perform. I mean, your grades are still great, and considering they were the hardest classes at Andover, I don’t think you have to worry about them questioning your academics.

You sound like an awesome person and I don’t see why they wouldn’t take you! Just remember that these types of universities can have ostensibly random decisions. Just work hard and I hope to see you at Princeton!
