<p>Exeter just called my dad and told him that I didn't get in because my math scores were, to say the least, horrible. I'm not really surprised at this but it puts a real damper on such a good day. </p>
<p>I hope this doesn't happen at other schools. If it does I will be supremely bummed.</p>
<p>I’m so sorry to hear that Rad. But look at it this way, if there is a strong correlation between ssat math score and academic success (in math anyway) at Exeter, then they have done you a favor. They have been doing this for years and have a pretty good idea of what it takes. It’s a drag that it comes down to performance on one Saturday morning, though.</p>
<p>It’s kind of nice that they let you know why. At least you don’t have to wonder. (Trying to find the positive side here.)</p>
<p>I’m sorry I was distracted before but that really sucks. You didn’t want to go to EXeter anyway,right? and I think Exeter is quite math heavy in comparison to the non-HADES schools you applied too. In reality it may kill your chances at SPS but personally I don’t think it’ll be really bad for the other schools. Don’t worry Rad statistically you have the best chance of all of us of getting in somewher because of the schools you applied to which I seem to recall were your first choices above HADES. Best of Luck but I truly don’t think you’ll need it to get into at least one brilliant school. You’ll be great Rad my friend :D</p>
<p>I know I’m not getting into Choate for the same reason. SPS I applied to because it seemed a bit more artsy idk y… but still (good point)the ones I actually wanted to got to aren’t HADES level</p>
<p>Lol i edited it because I thought it sounded condescending when that totally wasn’t what I was going for. Don’t worry we’ll all probably be going through this w/ at least one school on M10, at least you get extra sympathy?</p>
<p>god rad, that sucks. exeter should have looked at the rest of your amazingness and not just pinpointed your math score. everyone here knows you’re an epic and stellar person anyway, and that you’ll definitely get into another school/succeed. bwoo ha has are made of awesomesauce!</p>
