Andover/Exeter/Choate/Any other suggestions

<p>Hey everybody!</p>

<p>I want to apply to boarding schools for the rest of high school. I am interested in Andover, Exeter, and Choate. (If you have any other suggestions please let me know) </p>

<p>I will be going into 10th grade.<br>
I read on here that it is hard to get accepted into 11th grade and some people apply to re-do 10th grade. Is that a good idea?</p>

<p>I have a perfect GPA and also get passing advanced or perfect on all my state tests (SOL's). I currently go to a high school for theatre. I've been doing theatre for eight years (it's my passion). I also volunteer.
I know as of now I would probably not get accepted into the high-end boarding schools because I do not have extracurriculars like most people, besides theatre. (Which I spend most of my time doing, in school and outside of school). So what should I do to improve my chances?</p>

<p>Thanks everyone!</p>

<p>These are the high end. Others would be St. Paul’s, Deerfield, Lawrenceville, Hotchkiss.</p>

<p>Sorry, my statement was a bit confusing. I know they are the high-end schools. So I meant I probably would not get accepted to them. That is why I was asking for any other suggestions. Thank you for yours.</p>

<p>Lawrenceville, Hotchkiss.</p>
