Chance me?

<p>Hi I'm a current freshmen. I'm applying to boarding school next year as an incoming sophomore. What are my chances of getting in?</p>

<p>ISEE scores (just got them today!) -
Verbal Reasoning=84%
Reading Comprehension=83%
Quantitative Reasoning=89%
Mathematics Achievement=92%</p>

<p>The scores are two 7's and two 8's. Are these bad or good? I'm applying to Phillips Academy (Andover) and Hotchkiss. My mom went to Hotchkiss (they like her too) and my aunt went to Andover (they also like her). I go to a very competitive private high school and am making low A's-B's (86-93 range) in everything except geometry. I have an 80 in that. I'm actually really good at math, just not geometry. I think I did well at both of my interviews and both people from Andover and Hotchkiss who I interviewed with seemed to like me. I'm sporty (I play volleyball and softball) and I do Girl Scouts (I'm working on my gold project in my free time this next year). I did well in middle school (mostly A's, one or two B's). Do you think I have a chance of getting in?</p>
