<p>Extra
I also went to their summer school program if that helps, and really connected with my iterviwer, I still talk to her</p>
<p>Yes but I've decided these chance threads are a bit stupid. Like honestly we don't know eachother and personality is a huge factor. I'm not saying you don't have a good one, I just mean that most of the applicants for top boarding schools have scored high eighties to nineties on their SSATs and have good grades, extracurric etc, or else they wouldn't be intereted in schools with a huge courseload. They're motivated.</p>
<p>Ah! U have a large chance to get in........ =) Im Korean too, and im also applying to these schools! U have a better chance than me! =) I believe Korean Drums, archery, speaking and writing korean fluently, and shot put are very unique! I think you can get in 99.99%!
LOL. I play the flute but im the only guy flute player at my school. Everyone makes fun of the flute.</p>

<p>I don't understnad how you got a 94, 96 and 86 and still got only a 94% overall. Usually the overall is bumped up to around or higher than your highest score (which would be 96). Like I got an 88% verbal, 88% reading and 91% math but still got a 92% overall. Weird, ut anyways, why would you retake a 94%? That's right in the range of Exeter.. retaking would be a waste of money, not to mention a waste of time you could be working on your essays/ rest of the application. But hey, if you think you could like ace it or something and raise your scores by more than 5% maybe it's worth it but otherwise what's the point of studying and everything to only raise your score by like 2 or 3%?</p>
<p>yeh, getting over that 94 again would just be luck, math and vocab would generally stay the same, but reading is just based on luck of what articles you have. you could pull of a 90% perhaps with the reading, but its just not worth the time. stay with your scores an work on other things.</p>
<p>im confusde though, in your first statement when you posted your scores, you sed reading twice.... which one is vocab and which one is reading??</p>
<p>and your overall is weird..... cuz i got Math 99% Vocab 83% Reading 93% soooo if you add up my percentages, im one percent over you, yet my overall percentage was a 95%</p>
<p>yeh, i have almost the same setup as you.. apply to Exeter, but broaden your horizon and apply to other schools, like hotchikiss, groton, and deerfield</p>
