Chances for top prep schools?

<p>Hi, I'm an eight grader who applied to Exeter, Andover, Lville, Deerfield, Choate, and Hotchkiss. I know all of these schools are extremely hard to get in to, but my parents said that either I get accepted into these schools, or go to my current school. Anyways, I just wanted to know whether I am a considerable candidate for these schools or not.</p>

<p>I am an Asian-American (Indian) student living in NJ</p>

<p>My grades are the following:
Science: A+
English (Accelarated, which is the highest): A+
Math (Honors Algebra, which is the second highest, after geometry, so I'm a bit worried about this): A
Social Studies: A+
French: A+
Art: A+</p>

<p>I am in Odyssey of the Mind, and went to Worlds last year, and perhaps even this year.
Battle of the Books, went to States (which is the highest) and won
I am in French Club, but that is just a cooking club I took up for fun.
I have been playing basketball for two years, and am okay at it, although I haven't tried out on a team.
Played tennis for three years, but not on a team, or in any major competions.
Swimming for seven years, but not on a team, although I'm really good.
Won Celebrating Art art contest.</p>

<p>SSAT score of 98 percentile overall.</p>

<p>I am very passionate about art and I absolutely love to read, which I hope they saw in my interviews and essays.</p>

<p>The interviews went great.
The essays were really good, and I think. The recs are too, as I maintain good relationships with my teachers.</p>

<p>Also, my first cousin once removed (my great-aunts son) went to Exeter, so I don't know if that helps at all.</p>

<p>Finally, I will not be needing financial aid.</p>

<p>Thank you for taking the time to answer. I really hope I don't come across as pretentious or snobby. I am extremely sorry if I do. I just wanted to get an idea of my chances.</p>

<p>Really, no one can give you chances of getting in or not. I realized this a month ago or so, but since none of these posters are AO’s, we can’t give you an accurate idea. Unless one of us are AO’s… :expressionless: </p>

<p>Your stats are great! I’ve realized that the best thing you can do now is to cool down and not sweat it. Take it easy. Good luck! :slight_smile: </p>

<p>Thanks!! But everyone’s bound to be a bit nervous! :)</p>
