<p>I was accepted at NMH. My father said that he's not ready to let me go yet, and that I should re-apply in ninth grade (for tenth grade). Does anyone have a guess at the acceptance rate of incoming 10th grades at NMH? (Well, I would hope that it's a small percentage so I could perhaps use the argument "I must not let this opportunity slip by" or something of that kind.)</p>
<p>Not specific to NMH, but usually the admit rate for 10th grade is similar to that of the 9th grade because while the planned enrollment for 10th grade is smaller the applicant pool for the 10th is supposed to be smaller. However, for different grades schools may look for different “traits” to form a well-balanced class.There’s no garantee you’ll be admitted to the 10th just because you’ve been admitted for the 9th.</p>
