<p>hi... well, as some of you might already know, I was rejected from all three schools I applied to. I'm thinking about applying again next year (I'll be going into 10th grade then).</p>
<p>Would it hurt my chances much if I reapplied after being rejected?</p>
<p>Thanks.</p>
<p>Have you thought about going to a Jr prep for 9th grade?</p>
<p>I doubt it will hurt you, if anything it will show your commitment. Have you thought about reapplying for a repeat year?</p>
<p>Glitters, how about broadening the search? There are plenty of schools that are great and would be a wonderful experience, but aren't quite as low probability of admission as the ones you applied to. So, next year, even if you want to apply again to the same schools, you could add a couple more to the mix. </p>
<p>You could even check whether there's any school that's attractive to you that might still be possible to get into for this fall.</p>
<p>I reapplied after getting rejected for 9th grade and then got accepted for repeating 10th. Try to establish why you think you didn't get in. Could your grades have been higher? Could you have been more involved with activities, ec's, etc? Was your SSAT too low (70ish or below) ?This was a rough year for admissions so don't be too hard on yourself. Good luck1</p>
<p>You probably interviewed poorly. To get rejected to all schools rather than waitlisted, there was probably something that they disliked. Probably the interview. Just my opinion.</p>
<p>um, hokeymomofthree, what's Jr prep???</p>
<p>I really don't think much of reapplying, because, though I get the 4 year experience, it does seem a little odd to be hanging out with others younger than me... and do colleges count it against you if you repeated a year?</p>
<p>I got straight A+'s, and a 87% on SSAT... I do quite a lot of ec's too, but I applied for financial aid... and I really didn't interview that well...</p>
<p>Thanks everyone! And next year I'll definitely add more "easier" schools to my list. :)</p>
<p>I actually applied when I was in 8th grade last year, but got waitlisted from all the schools I applied to. </p>
<p>But this year I applied and got accepted to where I wanted to go. I'm a current 9th grader and will be going in as an incoming 10th grader.</p>
<p>Don't lose hope! It shows your commitment to the school =)</p>
<p>Work on your ability to communicate your 'uniqueness' (reason why they should accept you over other applicants), since this has to come out very strong for them to accept you.</p>
<p>I've applied twice no with no success, and each time I've concluded/learned new things from my failure. The above statement summarizes my knowledge I've learned this time around.</p>
