<p>Why transfer? Are you not happy with your current school? Why not finish 12th grade there, hopefully graduate 1st in the class, and graduate with the people you’ve been with over the past few years? You have excellent stats and would get into excellent universities regardless if you transferred or not.</p>

3

<p>Why transfer? You’ll loose out more unless you absolutely have to transferred. No LORs from teachers that really know you, etc…</p>

<p>Well I really do not like the teachers at my current school, and many of the Principals (assistant, associate, and principal) are being sued for racism. Furthermore, I would love to be taught with the harkness method, and I love the classes at deerfield, so I am transferring due to the current state of my school and to prep for the ivys. Can I get LORs from my old teachers at my past high school?</p>

<p>Getting into those schools are extremely competitive, particularly exeter. I would just finish High school in your current school and graduate valedictorian.</p>

6

<p>^ I agree. Stay home and dominate.</p>

<p>Those private schools are great, but just going there for one year is absolutely pointless.</p>
