<p>steelrealdeal - you should go only if you can answer this one question. How many exeter students does it take to change a lightbulb?</p>

<p>…do you really even have to ask? You’re a perfect candidate, I’d be surprised if you DIDN’T get in.</p>

<p>Now excuse me while I go barf out of both fear and inferiority.</p>

<p>I don’t think you need to go to Exeter. If you go there for senior, you may be not allowed to stay for PG, most schools don’t. Plus PG is for athletes, mostly team sports.</p>

<p>Yeah at boarding schools you have to apply for PG to go there for a post graduate year.</p>

<p>Also, I think with those stats you could get into a great college. I personally think instead of doing a PG you should think about college, especially if you are not an athlete. However, going to a school like exeter could be a reality shock, if you are doing so well at your current school. Stay where you are. You will almost positively get into a great college!</p>
