<p>HE NEEDS TO BE CHANCED REAL QUICK!!!!</p>

<p>THANKS FOR THE HELP IN ADVANCE!!!!</p>

<p>SSAT scores are not everything. Because your friend seems to have make E.C.s and good grades, he has great chances. Schools know that not everyone is a test-taking type person. I know someone who was rejected by Lawrenceville with a 99 percentile score. SSAT scores are not as important as they may seem. Tell your friend to stay confident and not give up on his dream school(s) because they’re not to far from his potential.</p>

<p>SSAT scores are just a part of the application, and his other stats are very solid. However, Korean applicants have a very high average score, which means his low 70% will definitely hurt. Still, he has a decent chance since the rest of his stats are strong.</p>

Why? Is he going to turn into a pumpkin?</p>

<p>And why are u shouting?</p>

<p>And why doesn’t your friend ask for himself? I know they have internet in Australia.</p>

<p>Ok Firstly, I appreciate your concern for him turning into a pumpkin.
And no, he doesn’t have internet at his house.
He wants to be chanced real quick because he is having real stress issues now.
Could I just give you one advice GMTplus7?
It would be that if you could be more polite and actually help instead of making everybody’s life miserable.</p>

<p>Thank you.</p>
