<p>The interviews went extremely well, Hotchkiss especially.
I don't know what I got on the SSAT, but I'm pegging on at least a 95% average</p>

<p>so what do you guys think?</p>

2

<p>Did they give you any feedback on why you weren't admitted last year? Your resume looks great.</p>

3

<p>they didn't unfortunately, i wanted to know though</p>

4

<p>bump.................</p>

5

<p>bump.......really? no more input? :(</p>

6

<p>Argh. No one will chance me, either. And I don't feel like I could tell you if you were a hit or miss, seeing as I'm wondering myself.</p>

7

<p>You can't fully chance someone without their SSAT scores, but looking at your resume it seems like you have a really good chance of getting into those schools, despite how hard it is to get accepted. Have you thought about any safety schools, or are you just going to go with these three?</p>

8

<p>my parents won't pay for my tuition unless it's a "top" boarding school, despite my want to get a safety......but it just so happens that those are the schools that i would most like to go to</p>

9

<p>don't worry, you've got an incredible and well-rounded resume.</p>

10

<p>my ssat scores are </p>

<p>verbal 99%
math 89%
reading 86%
overall 97%</p>

<p>is there anyone who was accepted into andover/exeter/hotchkiss/etc. for their 9th grade year? if so, can you tell me what your ssat scores, grades, essays, interviews, etc. were? thanks so much.</p>
