<p>bumpingg it</p>

<p>Your are definitely qualified but you never know with some of these schools.</p>

<p>Exeter- Reach
Andover- Reach
SPS- Reach/Low-Reach
Deerfield- Low Reach/Match
Choate- Low Reach/ Match</p>

<p>Do you speak all 3 languages fluently? Being a polyglot is always a good thing. Speaking French AND Korean is pretty impressive.</p>

4

<p>What?..If you say its a reach for A/E then its a reach for SPS and Deerfield also. And no way is it a reach for A/E and possibly a Match for deefield when they actually have the lowest acceptance rate of them all with 18%. Just though I’d throw that out there so the OP is not mis-lead with those stats.</p>

5

<p>Yes. I was born in S. Korea and we speak korean at home.</p>

<p>I moved in Canada when I was 5 and speak very fluent english.</p>

<p>I also go to a french immersion junior high school with 5 of my academic classes in solid french (in class and out of class)</p>

<p>I speak, write, listen to french very fluently.</p>

<p>I’m kinda afraid of my recs tho cuz my english + math teacher are kinda mean to me. </p>

<p>My history teacher wrote great recs for me tho :stuck_out_tongue: cuz he showed me haha. </p>

<p>I’m also applying as a sophomore.</p>

6

<p>Question - How many students based on grade do they take in a year? Reply if u know :stuck_out_tongue: Greatly appreciated</p>

7

<p>It matters which school your talking about A/E are a little bigger than SPS/DF. But its a good amount of people.</p>

<p>From the Andover web site:</p>

<p>so guys do u think i have a good chance for deerfield? I wannna go to deerfield really bad cuz my friend goes there, and he says the foreign languages rock. I want to learn latin :P</p>

10

<p>Oooo! Latin! Me too… maybe we’ll be latin buddies. =]
Anyways, you seem qualified… but unfortunately that’s the extent of what we can offer you. Maybe your personality sucks, you come of as arrogant, you write *****ty essays, etc… all the stuff that can’t be conveyed over the net.</p>

<p>But yeah, given all of that is false, I think you have a great chance! Good luck. =]</p>

11

<p>haha sweet man! ty for the help</p>

<p>I want to go to deerfield also… hope to see you there!!!</p>

14

<p>sigh. i did so bad on my ssat though. a composite score of 86. thats not good at all. maybe theres no chance for me Dx</p>

15

<p>What?! That’s an excellent score!!! You have a sharp chance. I’m starting to prepare for the SSAT’s I’m taking them in the fall of '09. You can never prepare too early. LOL</p>
