<p>This is my first thread. Please give me an honest response.</p>

<p>I am a registered Native American from California and I am applying to Milton Academy. I have been reading that Native Americans are the most underrepresented and that would give me a boost, hopefully. This is for fall of 2011 since I will apply after already being in grade 9.</p>

7th grade cum. GPA - 3.50
8th grade cum. GPA - 3.75</p>

<p>SSAT's 94% total</p>

<p>Awards -

National Honors Society
Mock Trial District-wide winner</p>

<p>Extra curriculars -

Theater department
Track Team
Film Academy</p>

<p>my main passion is roller derby and that is part of my "hook" since it is a very unique and retro sport. I spend most of my time with my derby team.</p>

<p>Essay was beyond amazing, and I am very proud of myself. =]
I have a recomendation from my uncle who is on the US civil rights committee and works with former President Bill Clinton.
I am applying for financial aid too.</p>

<p>Milton is the only school i am applying to because I feel it is the only one that will fit me.</p>

<p>You seem to have everything that boarding schools would want. Keep your grades up and it’s good to see that you have something your passionate about. Try to look at other schools that interest you, so you will other choices beside Milton. </p>

<p>Good Stats. Good Stuff. Good Luck.</p>

<p>Roller Derby? Yes that is an interesting thing to participate in, but I doubt it will help you unless they actually had a team for it. But being an Indian will help for sure. And not to mention your SSAT score is really good! Good Luck.</p>
