<p>Hello All,</p>

<p>I was wondering what my odds of getting accepted into Exeter and Andover are.</p>

<p>In October I took the SSAT and I got 88% overall (2175) 84% in verbal (725) 88% in math (749) and 82% in reading (701).
Knowing I could improve I decided to take it again in December and received an underwhelming 86% overall (2166) 74% in verbal (704) 91% in math (764) and 79% in reading (698). It's extremely frustrating because I did well on the practice tests and I think I could do much better. Academics, however, are my strong suit as I haven't gotten below an 'a-', if I were to get in this would most likely be why. Also, everyone who wrote my recommendations (2 teachers and my priest) really like me. My interviews also seemed to go over very well, especially Exeter's and my sister currently attends Andover. I was curious to know that if I deliver very strong essays if I would be able to get admitted.</p>

<p>Thank You</p>

<p>I play soccer, lacrosse, and basketball and I am involved in my church by being an altar server. I do the school play, I sing in chorus. Also, I forget to mention that I am in every accelerated/ honors class possible </p>

<p>The school play is annual. Soccer, lacrosse and basketball is school team and recreational and altar serving is basically every week.</p>
