I want to apply to Thacher and Cate, can you guys please chance me?
This is kind of a resume or what I would write on my application. (I’m applying for 9th grade as a repeat.)
-I’m an international student from two countries (One of my parents is English (not from UK though) and my mom is asian) and I’m currently living in another asian country and go to a very highly accredited international school. So I’m diverse.
-In the last report I got, I got 12 As and 2 Bs for effort. And I got the highest grade you can get in Math, and get above average for all my subjects except in 4 subjects I got average, and I got below average in PE. But when I say average I mean for my school which is above average in everything over all. My school doesn’t offer AP/honors classes cause it has a different system.
-I take part in a lot of theater and art activities, and i was selected out of many students at my school to take part in a advanced drama extra-curricular.
-I am bad at PE and I’m not on any teams. (I will try to avoid mentioning that).
-I recently hiked up a mountain so I take part in outdoor activities like camping.
-I take part in Amnesty and other community service to help orphans.
-I taken and passed up to grade five with merit in grades 3,4,5 in my piano exams.
-I think I will get good teacher recommendations.

Do you think I would get into these schools boarding school and what are my chances? Which schools do you think will accept me?
What else should I write my application and what makes an application look impressive? Thank you all in advance :)
