Need advice, more school? chance me please ~

<p>Dear all,</p>

<p>have been reading lines here for a while, decided to make my 1 post
I'm thinking about applying more schools which due on end of Jan....
Any input would be appreciated</p>

<p>SSAT V 99%, R 99% M 99%, OA 99%
TOEFL: 114 out of 120 (as an international student)
GPA: 3.9</p>

<p>Applying: SPS, Deerfield, Exeter, Andover, Hotchkiss, Taft, Choate
All not FA</p>

<p>I am currently rank top 1 or 2 in my school (public) w/ fulent Chinese.
Because of the national education system, My ECs are not that abundant (compare to the people in CC)</p>

<p>Music: Piano & clarinet, had Orchestra performing experience
I play basketball, win swimming competition and Badminton competition
School Math team leader couple years</p>

<p>I know there is nothing can gurantee but wonder if I would have good chance.
Thank you</p>

<p>which grade are u applying to?</p>

<p>You are very strong, especially as an international student. I think you will make it to at least some of the schools you are applying to. The SSAT scores are very impressive. Are you going a middle school in China?</p>

<p>No, I'm at public school in Taiwan.
I'm currently at 8th grade and going to apply 9th</p>

<p>You should be fine. Good luck!</p>

<p>I just worry about no safe school..
The interviews went well, but I heard most of the admission staffs won't give negative feedback after interview. so, if there is ok for my current application, I'll send out my last one - Andover.
Thank you for the advices :)</p>

<p>If you are unhappy with your options if you do not get accepted and you want to go to boarding school in the US, you should consider adding one or two less competitive schools. Congratulations on your impressive SSAT results!</p>

<p>Thank you Burb, I have browsed the CC and knowing some applicants picked some safety schools and a little bit worry if I am doing too aggressive on schools selection. Thank you for your advice.</p>
