My daughter is applying for Harker Grade 6 and took ISEE test. Her score is 9,8,8,8. Didn’t prepare for the test at all because we think if she can achieve high score without practice then she will have no problem to survive in the challenging environment in Harker.
My daughter skipped a grade but she is only half year younger than avg 5th students. She is a spontaneous writer and tried all genres. I guess her essay should be very good. She is a pianist who won top prizes in piano competitions and went to Carnegie Hall to perform when she was eight. Recommendation letter not sure if i
It’s the first time that Harker adopts ISEE or SSAT as entrance exam. So there is no previous talk. But those kids in Menlo School may provide some thoughts. What ISEE score is good for Harker or Menlo middle school?
Are you taking about Harker and Menlo in the Bay Area?
Yes, I am talking about Harker and Menlo in SF Bay Area.
Harker has its own teat for lower grade applicants in the before. But this year they ask for SSAT Or ISEE for Middle School applicants
I now go to boarding school in MA, but I used to go to a school literally across the street from Menlo called Sacred Heart. I’m for sure biased since I went to Sacred Heart from grades 1-8 but it’s a really good school and if you’re applying to Menlo, you might as well check it out. It is literally across the street. We used to walk to the gym from our campus for sports games:) If you have any questions feel free to pm me:)
Thank you for your information about Sacred Heart. I did some research about the school. Yes, it’s very good! We moved here a year ago so still take time to know which school is a good fit for my kid.
