<p>I'm applying for 10th grade at Andover and Exeter</p>

<p>I'm Indian, I was born here in the US and have lived here all my life.
I need financial aid.</p>

<p>School: Top 5% of schools in US (Newsweek)
Grades/School: 3 AP Classes (Calculus, Physics, Human Geography), 2 PreAP/Honors Classes (Spanish, English), and PE. I have a 4.0 currently.
Ive been in 'advanced' classes since I was 8
Recommendations:Probably 9.5/10 average, if you were to rate them, I haven't seen the letters, but I can make an assumption from my relationship with my teachers.My Calculus teacher loves me, and my HUGS/English teacher likes me too.</p>

<p>Interview: Good, probably an 8 or 9 out of 10?</p>

<p>Extracurriculars:
Key Club/Community Service, 1 year experience, 1~2 hrs a week
Math Club/Mu Alpha Theta, 5 years experience, 24 AMC 8 (last year), 107 AMC 10, Team made it to Mathcounts state
Knowledge Bowl, 2 years, 2~4 hours a week (depends on whether we have meets or not), JV team 1, Varsity team 1
Tae-Kwon-Do: 6~7 years experience, 1~3 hrs a week, Black Belt 1st Degree
Art: 5~6 years experience, 1~2 hours a week, Advanced Student
Swimming: ~2 years experience, ~1 hour a week, Level 6 (Highest Level)</p>

<p>Haven't taken SSAT's yet, looking at December/January, from my practice test averages I get 790-780 Verbal, 770-760 Reading and 800 Math</p>

<p>I also live in a geographically underrepresented area</p>

<p>My #1 school would be Andover, 2 would be Exeter</p>

<p>Also, are there anything I can do now (I know its late) to boost my chances of getting in?</p>

<p>you sounds like an awesome candidate!
andover and exeter look for people that have your kind of stats, not just smart which you obviously are, but also doing things outside of school. you have great EC’s, and since you have been doing them for all a long time, thats great too because of the large experience.
how do you think your essays will be? im not sure if you mentioned it or not, sorry if you did(:</p>

<p>Thanks for the response!</p>

<p>I haven’t started my essays yet though, so I can’t tell how’ll they’ll be…</p>

<p>assuming your essays are good you have a great chance and at this point there probably nothing you can do to boost your chances</p>

<p>lololol. As a guy who passed Taekwondo black belt poom 1 in 5th grade (I’m not joking), I gotta laugh when I see people putting Taekwondo black belt poom 1 in their resume. Poom 1 isn’t high, and I don’t see how you spent 6-7 years getting up there. I hope you have some kind of award.</p>
