Hey Sue quick question, I’ll be applying as a repeat 9th grader next fall and on Exeter’s website they say that for 9th and 10th grade applicants you need to send in the SSAT or ISEE and for 11th Grade the PSAT. I will most likely be taking the PSAT at my local HS next October because they give the PSAT to all students grades 9-12 that way 9th and 10th grade students can get used to the PSAT/SAT format from an early age. My question is, if I score relatively high on the PSAT, do you think Exeter/Deerfield and a few other schools would accept it in place of the SSAT/ISEE ? I might just phone the admissions office and ask but if you know the answer it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
