<p>I’m a current freshman who wants to apply to prep/boarding schools my junior year. I took the most rigorous courses my school offers this year. I’m a URM, I’m Somali…if that helps. Based on my stats which schools do you think are good fits for me?</p>

<p>S1:
Honors Algebra 2 (11th grade math): C+ 83
Honors English: B- 85
Honors Government: B 87
Honors Science: B- 86
Career Studies: A 98
Health: A 95
Spanish: B+ 92</p>

<p>Q3:
Honors Algebra 2: A 96
Honors English: A- 93
Honors Government: A 95
Honors Science: A- 94
Art: A 98
Physical Education: A 96
Spanish: A 100</p>

<p>I WILL GET STRAIGHT A’S SOPHOMORE YEAR!!!</p>

<p>I took the practice PSAT test and got a perfect score of 240.
Um, I took the practice SAT and got a 2300, M:700 W:800 CR:800
I will take my SSAT next year, I guess, shouldn’t be bad.</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
Freshman year:
Class president!
<strong><em>Speech and Debate (National Forensics League): State Champion for Oratorical Declamation and National Qualifier, I currently have about 260 NFL Points!</em></strong> (my top skill)
Mock Trial
Field Hockey
Tennis
Recycle Club</p>

<p>I plan on continuing all of these and adding these:
Indoor Track
Teen Court
Academic Decathlon
Big Brothers Big Sisters
Spanish & French Club</p>

<p>Volunteering: NAACP, Center for the Prevention of Hate Violence</p>

<p>This summer I will volunteer for these above organizations, attend Field Hockey and Tennis Camp, and start an organization for Somali teens to be better leaders and to be more involved in their community so that we can end discrimination. I will also be attending a leadership summer seminar at a local university.</p>

<p>My interests are really leadership, politics and writing. So please, which schools do you think are good for me, and do you think I have a chance at getting into top schools?</p>

<p>all right, I’m not going to suggest any schools here since you should be the one doing your homework and search for schools that YOU like. You should have a few top choices, a few moderate, and a few safeties. You have a pretty good chance I’d say, but your school grades and standardized test scores are quite different, so that made me a little concerned. But i think you really have a chance to stand out. I applied for my junior year this year, and I got into 2 schools, and will head to Deerfield Academy next year. So it’s not really that hard to get in as a junior. GOOD LUCK!!! :)</p>

<p>I’ve been doing lots of research on schools, but I really wanted to know what the “more-experienced” people on here thought. And congratulations on getting in!!! I hope you like it! :slight_smile: thanks for the info.</p>
