Hello there, my top prep choices are Exeter, Andover and Deerfield, and I got my ISEE scores back today. My top house is Deerfield but my parents want me to apply to A and E. My scores were 99%for both math sections, 93% on verbal, and 88% on reading comprehension. Because of the atrocious reading comprehension score, I am taking the test again in January. However, I was wondering if this score was okay
This score is not atrocious. It is fine. Will not disqualify you. (If you are a boy it is more typical too)
Well, the main reason I’m worried is that i am an Asian female-a orm- so although I have good extracurriculars, my scores must be top notch to get in @Center
Your scores are very good and good enough for E or A. Being an Asian female means you have to being a more interesting applicant. Higher scores are just gravy.
Thank you for the reassurance- I have lots of ecs but I’m sure others do as well, so I am focusing on my essay at the moment to make me stand apart from other applicants similar to myself @Center
