Have there been any records of how many or if boarding schools, like Exeter, Andover, Choate, Deerfield, and Loomis Chaffee, admit upperclassmen? How strong do your grades and extracurriculars have to be for you to have a chance?
the acceptance rate for upperclassman is extremely low compared to lower years.
Soemthing that some other kids do is repeat sophomore year to increase their chances and extend their education and time at the school.
