I got an 82 on the SSAT

Congratulations on getting a 95 rvvv2021! Well, GoatMama, the thing about deciding which school is best for you is about seeing which school will lead you to be the most successful. Now, for many cases, the better the school, the better the students. But that’s not always the case. Since being from a more prestigious school gives you higher advantageous, many people apply. But they should also know that if they get accepted, would they be fine there? Would the homework be too much? Is the price too high (although no need to worry about Andover because they have need-blind admission)? All these have to be taken into consideration before making your decision. From a logical perspective, it’s recommended that you apply to multiple high-ranked schools due to the better the school, the HIGHER your chances are of being successful. That doesn’t mean if you go to the best schools, it’ll guarantee you success. That could be true for public schools as well, but it’s just that going to better schools gives you better chances, not guarantees it. But out of the schools you chose, see which one fits your needs. By doing all this you should be able to go to a great school and enjoy your time there and not stress. So it’s pretty much a win-win. Hopefully, this cleared up a little confusion.
