chances.....

<p>What do you think my chances are of getting into a boarding school?
info:

<p>SSAT scores
verbal 698 76%
Math 728 83%
Reading 716 91%
overall 2142 86%</p>

<p>I take 3 high school courses, algebra, world history, and spanish I
EC's:
I play basketball (only one season this year, I really like it)
attend a camp at this school every year snce 4th grade
volunteered at my mom's job and the public library a couple times
I'm in the world languages club at my school.
The interview went great and the rector really likes me. (He knows me from the camp)
I'd be a boarding student not day.</p>

<p>BUT!!
I need Financial aid for full tuition.</p>

<p>I also wanted to say how awsome this site is. How people understand what I'm going through applying way more than other people (my friends) who don't understand how much this means.
Thanks guys.</p>

<p>No one on this site can say whether you will get in or not. You look solid, but people can get in or rejected on different things. Oh, What school are you applying to.</p>

<p>Sorry didnt see your post on the other thread. Where is chatam hall</p>

<p>It's in Chatham, VA.</p>

<p>I think you have a really good chance, but like dragonkid said no one on here really knows for sure.
I've been going to the camp at the school I'm applying to for 2 years.
You've been going for a long time, so I'm sure that your name is known around the admissions office, I'm pretty sure mine is.
You're a good student, with good test scores, & sports are always a plus (especially if you've mentioned wanting to play on that school's team!) so I wouldn't stress.
I just looked on petersons.com & it said that 78% of students who applied were admitted, that's a pretty good amount.</p>

<p>Thanks. I guess i shouldn't stress, but this is my dream. I want to get in soo bad.</p>

<p>I know, EXACTLY how you feel.</p>

<p>I'm happy someone does.</p>

<p>hey doughnuts I looked at Chatam and it was a really nice school. You look like a solid candidate but for some reason the admissions directors don't ask for my advice</p>

<p>haha. I wish they did. Ahhhh can March 10th take any longer to get here???</p>
