7th grader considering options... boarding or day???

<p>I am really interested in boarding school... my top choices are in order (Choate, Loomis Chaffee, Lawrenceville, Peddie, Taft, and Hotchkiss).... </p>

<p>I am ready for boarding school, but my parents dont think so... however I am brilliant.. looking for a school that has exceptional science programs...</p>

<p>I have a 3.9 GPA at a private day school and i am in the top 5 percent of my class, I took the SSAT's once and got in the 80th percentile, but plan on taking them again...</p>

<p>any suggestions would be amazing...</p>

<p>THANK YOU!!</p>

<p>You lost me at “I am brilliant”.</p>

<p>^^ me too–</p>

<p>I wonder if you are as ready as you might believe you are. Parents are pretty good at knowing you–at this point in your life as well–if not better–than you.</p>
