<p>i need to know which one of these schools will best prepare me for harvard, a career on wall street and the presidency.</p>
<h2>Winner - Best Post Of 2008 Application Season !! Now let's build on it.</h2>
<p>What are my chances?</p>
<p>SSAT's - 104%
Grandpa donated a nuclear submarine to the school's physics lab
I made a quilt the size of Rhode Island for children in an impoverished country
I invented a new form of martial arts now taught in 17 countries
I volunteer for the local animal shelter neutering strays</p>
<p>omg! did ur s/d do all that stuff, laxtaxi? invent a new form of martial arts? is this a joke?</p>
<p>Choate is pretty hot on the fact that they actually produced a president. Personally, I favor Deerfield. </p>
<p>Any of those schools are good choices. Pick what feels best for <em>now</em> and take advantage of all the opportunities they throw at you.</p>
<p>Another thought -- which school has the best international focus -- specifically in terms of curriculum but in general overall. And I don't mean which school has the most international students. Seems to me that in this day and age, a future president needs to have a larger view of the world than the incumbent.</p>
<p>hilarious! this is a joke, right?</p>
<p>andover might be something to keep me out of the white house. president bush went there. choate might also be a problem because of kennedy. i may scrach them off the list.</p>
<p>I think Groton claims a president but I can't remember which one. Kerry went to SPS--are you ruling out failed candidacies? :)</p>
<p>Congratulations to you, nhfootballer, on your successful applications. In my opinion, any one of the schools you list could further your career goals. You should choose the school you like the best. </p>
<p>As a parent, I urge you not to let your future goals overshadow the present. The next 8 years of your life will change you. Don't be afraid to adjust your plans, as you learn more about yourself.</p>
<p>google says president franklin roosevelt went to groton.</p>
<p>OMG i got a 130 % on SSAT
got recommendations from the secretary general of the United Nations
a letter of rec from Bill Clinton
i built a time machine and went back in time and wrote a report on 2000 B.C. Egypt. P.S. President Bush told me to keep this a secret but oh well.
my grandma designed the first rocket
and my grandpa founded NASA
I have 17 sisters who went to Harvard
22 brothers who are/have attending/attended stanford
and 10 cousins who attended princeton
oh i forgot to mention</p>
<p>my parents have a career on wall street</p>
<p>lol!
wiseman!</p>
<p>This is SO funny!</p>
<p>glad you like, dazz. the multiple deerfield vs. andover posts just made me insane for a minute.</p>
<p>FDR went to Groton... he was pretty chill
you should come =]</p>
<p>Nhfootballer - this was great!!!</p>
<p>But, after Harvard, wall street, and the presidency, I want to be UN Secretary General....which school will best prepare me? Also, I need to consider the afterlife, so can anyone tell me which school is most likely to allow me to ascend into Heaven? Are there rankings for schools with the best Heaven acceptances?</p>
<p>Also, I hear St. Mark's gets a lot of press around here...you should consider going there as well. :)</p>
<p>You need to think about your other half, better from harvard or princeton!</p>
<p>FDR is their president, I believe</p>
<p>I was also wondering which school would give me the most leverage when applying for sainthood.
Any Ideas?</p>
<p>But aren't these your safety schools? What about Eton?</p>
<p>Do you completely screw up your chances at becoming Pope if you go to an Episcopal school?</p>
<p>Um, you guys, your stats are PATHETIC.</p>
