Phillips Exeter Academy

<p>Hello all,</p>

<p>I got accepted into Exeter! Woot. I was wondering how they place you in math as a freshman. I know there’s a placement test, but if you skip a few questions, will it hurt your placement? I’m taking an online geometry course now and I’m taking Algebra 1 in school. I feel like I would be able to answer every question on the test after my geo course is finished, but it isn’t finished. Also, for anybody who has been at Exeter, IS THE COMPETITION HARD? What is it like there? I know I did a revisit and a tour, but it seemed kind of intimidating and serious there… do you have fun?<– lol</p>

<p>Thanks so much. :)</p>

<p>This doesn’t belong here…</p>

<p>What does Exeter Look for in a Student? I made a number of mistakes that I believe cost me acceptance on the application, which I will not make this time. Any answers are helpful, and thanks!</p>

<p>Exeterr nothing in particular. just well rounded students. on my acceptance letter they said they liked my “dedication to the comunity” and “commednalbe maturity” along with “the strength of my reccommednations” and my “academic record” i got a 66% on my SSAT so you can get accepted with low SSAT scores. so pretty much i guess someone that stands out and can make a difference. i went to a meeting with teh principal and his family and thats what they said.</p>
