New to Prep school forum

<p>Hi All, </p>

<p>I have 7th grade daughter who wants to go to prep school.
I needed to know when should I start my admission process. She needs to attend in 9th grade that is Aug 2013 she starts school. When should she take SSAt ? </p>

<p>thanks</p>

<p>Repost to prep school parents, or prep school admissions. You might want to start looking at schools now, but if you repost you’ll get more responses. Take the ssats when she’s in eighth grade.</p>

<p>Ok will do that
Thanks</p>

<p>We waited until late summer after 7th grade, wrong move IMHO… There are SSAT prep courses that would be most helpful to take if one is not a very strong standardized test taker. I would encourage your child at this moment start looking at activities that would be helpful that your child enjoys (such as sports or writing). We waited far too long before starting the process… Additionally I would be looking at schools now that you want to consider and realize the staggeringly low acceptance rate for some schools. If you have no local option, cast a wide net for BS so as to be able to get into one and hopefully more than one. We have a local option which is very good so we didn’t go with any safety schools at all.</p>
