<p>Hello everyone,
So I need some advice about college. Right now I go to Milton Academy, a prep school just outside of Boston. Milton was named one of the top 20 high schools in America by Forbes magazine a few weeks ago. Many students go to Ivy’s as well many other great colleges in the US.</p>
<pre><code> I applied to Milton during my 9th grade year at my middle school. I was accepted conditionally: I had to repeat 9th grade so I could “mature.” My freshmen year at Milton was very mediocre. My sophomore year started out the same and then I was suspended for possession of marijuana in October. This past winter, I got my grades up substantially. I had all Bs and very positive comments from my teacher. Part of this success may be attributed to a diagnosis and treatment of ADHD. At the end of January, I was suspended for the year for possession of alcohol. I’m now having to repeat again. I’m two years behind in high school and as of November, I’ll be an 18 year old sophomore.
Milton believes in my ability to do well, the school likes me a lot. I play two varsity sports, I test extremely well and have very high ACT and SAT scores, I interview very well, as well. I have everything going for me. I just went through a rough patch but have since made lots of progress and am very well prepared to succeed.
My question boils down to this: would it be possible for me to seek some other option than having to finish three more years at Milton? If so, what would they be and what do they depend on. I plan to devote myself entirely to academics so I can have high grades. Additionally, I’m going to summer school to get some more credits.
I really want to get back on track and not have to spend another 3 years in high school. Any advice to that effect would be greatly appreciated,
