Grades?

<p>How much would a 1 B+ ( A.K.A. not high honors), with 4 A's in the other subjects hurt my chances for Exeter, Andover, Deerfield, etc.?</p>

<p>Not at all. Grades are one component. The “rest” of you is what will matter. That’s why there are essays, recommendations, places to list extracurriculars, etc.</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it. Schools aren’t looking for “perfect” students - they’re looking for smart, hard working ones. Be yourself, do your best, and don’t stress about it.</p>
