<p>So so far these two schools have become my top choices. I love em both, talked to the caoches for football and interviweres. Academically they are both on par, and besides whats better. For football for me, Anodver mite be better b.c their whole line graduated, but Deerfield has always been a solid team. Also what about the social scene? What are ur thoughts on these schools and which one would you choose?</p>
<p>You should save this question till after March 10, when you get your offer(s) on the table. You may want to compare a different pair of schools, or more than two schools. Some current students and parents will come back then to help you decide. It’ll be much more efficient.</p>
<p>deerfield kids are chill, andover not so much…
IMHO deerfield is more lax about school, like the teachers are as uptight
andover all the kids do is study and they have no fun at all.
deerfield is also super preppy, with a lot of super-rich kids
IDK andover and i have only met one andover kid i like in NYC and trust me ive met a bunch</p>
<p>i’ve also seen a lot of both PA and DA outside of the tours and interviews, where unfortunately the majority of the time they are fake, put on a nice smile. DA kids seem happy at their school and content where they are academically while andover kids are always super stressed worrying about school even during winter break. </p>
<p>IMHO if you have a choice go to deerfield</p>
<p>I would have a tough time deciding between Exeter and Middlesex if I get accepted. They both have certain things I like.</p>
<p>P.S. I would rather go to Deerfield than Andover because Bush went to Andover. Enough said…</p>
<p>Benley I was just wondering, b.c well I talked to the caoches again, and they said, “Oh, dont worry about admission, just concentrate on keeping urself in good shapes.”- deerfield</p>
<p>I will do everything in my power to help you with admission, dont worry about it - andover.</p>
<p>so im taking this as a good sign</p>
<p>yeah i agree with u hco, arent u applying to andover tho?</p>
<p>I think ill wait till march 10th to see if i act. get in and then decide on revisit days</p>
<p>nah i not cause i like dont buy into the whole name brand thing like kids only want to go to PA PEA cause of the name and so they can say like " I went to andover and everyone will by like ohhhh, wow you must be smart" i realize that is not the case of the majority of kids applying. and plus i know 15+ kids at PA and i only like one. nuff’ said andover = no go</p>
<p>Um, I am pretty sure Bush went to Choate.
Anyway, Jyun, my opinion (even though I am pretty sure you already know what it is…) is if you get accepted Deerfield, GO TO DEERFIELD! But its really up to you. When March comes around and you get letters back from schools, discuss it with your parents and think about what you really want in a school. Good Luck making a decision :)</p>
<p>Tree- Bush DEFINITELY went to Andover. Proven fact. JFK went to Choate.</p>
<p>bush went to andover </p>

<p>its under education</p>
<p>Why would any alum for any school have a bearing on your choice to attend?</p>
<p>it wouldn’t for me, but if it were a recent alum it could possibly gauge the schools programs (ex- theater) (just maybe)</p>
<p>my bad! someone told me he went to choate. Guess they were wrong.</p>
<p>Glad that is settled. Now you can go to Andover anyway, if you get in and want to.</p>
<p>haha thanks for the feedback. I decided I’ll choose on the revisit days. If I get accepted to all my choics I decided I’ll attend my top 3 choices</p>
<p>thats a good idea jyun~</p>
<p>I thinks its the best way to be sure u know? As of now, I’m leaning towards Deerfield, but… my parents want Andover. I’m pretty sure their mind or mine can change after we vsit Deerfield and Andover</p>
