<p>I am in 8th grade applying to these four schools and I would like you to chance me for each of them individually. Here it goes:
Grades:
P.E: A-
Geometry: A
RLA 8 Honors: A
Drama: A
Science: A
U.S. History Honors: A-
Extracurricular:
Soccer: 1 year 2 hours a week
Theater: 1 year 2 hours a week
Piano: 6 years 2 hours a week
Golf: 1 year 2 hours a week
Gymnastics: 1 year 6 hours a week
I also placed third place in the fourth and fifth grade spelling bees and am competing in my eighth grade spelling bee. Received an outstanding achievement in math award and have never have gotten a proficient on CSTs.
Recommendations:
My teachers followed ALL the rules and did not show me a thing of the recs they sent, but I am pretty sure they went well.
SSAT:
I haven't taken it yet but assume I get in the 90th percentile.
Essays:
I think I will do good on them. (I have almost finished most of them. Practically all of Andover and Exeter's.)
Um, I think that's everything. Ask if you have any questions.</p>
<p>If you really want to go to boarding school, you should also apply to a couple of schools that you like that are not as intensely competitive as the four you have listed. This is not to say that your stats are not fine–but there are no guarantees that anyone will be admitted to any of those schools. If you have a good local school alternative, and this is just a shot in the dark, then best of luck.</p>
<p>I agree; you need back-up schools.</p>
