<p>Just going to say that anything before grade 9 (or high school) is pretty much irrelevant.</p>

<p>OK, so how many gold medals are awarded? What grades/classes/class rank/GPA have you? You sound interesting, but your lit/writing may be a bit on the low side-are you also applying to Vassar, or other REALLY BIG theater schools? I’m sure you would be a shoo-in at Bard.</p>

4

<p>who knows…grades could make a difference as stated above…no one here is in admin so everyone would be guessing but 50/50 I’d say…doesn’t help thta you need aid as an int’l at Midd.</p>

<p>@Modadunn: Most my Extra Currics are 11th grade and after that.</p>

<p>@ OldbatesieDoc: Gold medals are awarded to around 70 people out of a class of around a 1000 students. I know my grades are a little on the lower side though. My school doesnt compute GPAs or ranks, but my average is around over 90%. But yeah, I’m also applying to Vassar and other theater schools. </p>

<p>@flyboy: Aid actually happens to be one of my major problems here,being an international student.</p>

<p>Thank you so much for your replies guys. Just have my fingers crossed.</p>

6

<p>I wish you the best, but the grades are key with the test scores. You have a chance, probably better for Vassar, which is also an excellent school and perhaps a better fit for you.</p>

<p>Thanks! :)</p>

8

<p>OldbatesieDoc, I agree.
I think Vassar’s perfect for you =)</p>

<p>Fingers crossed for getting Vassar! =)</p>
