andover!!!

<p>anybody received anything from andover?????????? i'm so nervous and worried... my application and interview were great i thought but my ssat was pretty bad (90% or so). anybody? what did you receive and when?</p>

<p>No, I haven't received ANYTHING! Both regular mail and UPS has come, so I don't know if I've been accepted/waitlisted/rejected.</p>

<p>I'm really nervous!!!</p>

<p>i was accepted by andover :)
and umm well it was delivered to me saturday but i never got it until today because we picked it up at the ups store.
so technically saturday..
but the note on the door dropped off, and we missed ups this morning but they left the note this time.</p>

<p>maybe yours was like that too?</p>

<p>are you going to go jenny?</p>

<p>well it seems that acceptances were already received.. its just rejections and WLs. which sucks cuz i got wait listed at choate and hotchkiss and then rejected at taft</p>

<p>idk yet..depends on the fa they gave me =/
my mom's looking thru it right now so idk.</p>

<p>awww don't worry plasticragdoll..it's ok :)
keep your hopes up <3</p>

<p>thanks. </p>

<p>my stepmom told me that a bunch of people got calls from andover saying yes? is that true for anybody here?</p>

<p>I was accepted to Andover by a UPS delivery on Saturday.</p>

<p>were you accepted to exeter too prettyckitty</p>

<p>i got accepted to andover on saturday same as prettyckitty</p>

<p>Yes, this afternoon. As far as presentation goes, Exeter has the best. The folder is very pretty, with the silver band with the lions on it.</p>

<p>90% ssat was bad? </p>

<p>please. i got into andover with a 72%.</p>

<p>you know whats weird? andover called me the other day, and asked me if i had already signed up with another school.</p>

<p>Had you agreed to stay on the waitlist?</p>

<p>bluee are u serious, 72 percentile and u got in????? wow.....How....i got 91 percent on my october SSAT and I thought i would never get in with 91 percent...I did a excellent interview..i think...and also my EC's are pretty good...and my grades are like A's (not A+'s) is this bad???? pleez help goin for Exeter, Lawrenceville, Andover, St. Paul</p>

<p>SSAT, the ssat scores are just a "first sieve" at these schools. Andover's average last year was 94 so you are definitely in the ballpark which is all that matters. I do not think your 91 will hurt you at any of these schools - or particularly help you either. Far more important are your grades, your teacher recs and what other qualities you bring to the class they are building for next year, as shown by your ECs and sports, your interview and your essays. Geographical and ethnic diversity can also help if you have these going for you. All of these schools are reaches for everyone, not a slam-dunk no matter what your profile. Good luck!</p>

<p>For everybody confused out of their mind about how these people are getting their acceptance letters, this is a very old thread that somebody decided to bump up for no apparent reason.</p>
