Just Wondering

<p>can you guys comment below what schools you're applying to or thinking about applying to?
my list is
NMH
MILTON
EXETER
DEERFIELD
CHOATE
HOTCHKISS
GROTON (day)</p>

<p>Lawrenceville
Loomis Chaffee
Hotchkiss
NMH
Phillips Andover
Kent
Mercersburg</p>

<p>That’s the order of preference, too.</p>

<p>have you had any interviews yet? I’ve had NMH and I really like it! I didn’t expect it to be that great, but NMH is probably my second choice, deerfield being first</p>

<p>Competition for day at Groton is pretty steep. Good luck everywhere!</p>

<p>Applying to
Phillips Andover
Phillips Exeter
Cranbrook
Grier School
Mercersburg </p>

<p>Considering
Linden Hall
Groton
Culver</p>

<p>Yup. Interviewed at Lawrenceville, Loomis, Hotchkiss, and Deerfield.
We did NOT like Deerfield at ALL, but loved the other three.</p>

<p>The interviews went great, as well. I really connected with all of the interviewers.</p>

<p>Concord
Middlesex
Governor’s
(All day)</p>

<p>Exeter
St. Paul’s
Loomis Chaffee</p>

<p>Exeter is my number one no matter what and I have not yet visited the other two so I don’t know what to expect. Good luck!</p>

<p>I have always wanted to attend boarding school since the 6th grade, however I could not. Now I am a sophomore and I applying to Exeter for upper and senior year. I hope this gives you guys confidence, seeing as I will immediately be rejected. But realize that you all have nothing to lose. You’re phenomenal and you’ll all succeed anywhere. Now I shall wait for March 10th and cry then.</p>

<p>Failure to prepare is preparing to fail! Start preparing for college in sixth grade!</p>

<p>^ no people start in 4th grade, how do you expect to win the USAMO then/</p>

<p>You don’t have to win USAMO to get into a decent college…</p>

<p>People preparing at that age aren’t trying to get into a “decent” college.</p>

<p>Ivy League all the way… jk
looks like cccc by the sea for me :slight_smile:
(cape cod community college)</p>

<p>So you’re saying you MUST win USAMO to get into an “above decent” college.</p>

<p>WishStar12 is obviously misinterpreting my statement. I have stated that those few who start that early are not trying to only get into a decent college. Typically they would aim for HYP, or other elite schools, because it would be worth their sacrifices. They probably would need to do something on par with USAMO if they didn’t have any hooks. Realise the math department and other departments are pretty limited considering class size/department majors. So when say they have to choose the top 50 students in math, just saying your good st math wouldn’t cut it. You need to provide proof. USAMO and something on par would help select these people.</p>

<p>Andover
New Hampton
Milton
Exeter
St.Paul’s
St. Mark’s
Kimball Union
Governor’s
(all boarding and need full FA)</p>

<p>Choate
Deerfield
Hotchkiss</p>

<p>How is Kimball Union? Don’t hear much about it…</p>
