Prep School Application

I’m a current freshman at public school applying for freshman year at prep schools. I wanted to know if schools will judge me on the fact of me repeating a year. My grades in the past were excellent (A’s with the occasional A-) and I am going into three of the three honors courses offered to freshman at my school. I also skipped a grade which currently sets me to graduate at 17! Would LOVE some insight on this!

Lots of kids repeat 9th when they go to BS. It is often viewed positively. Just be sure that you have a good rationale for it. They don’t want kids doing it unhappily merely to be more competitive applicants - they want to know that it is your choice and preference.

Btw, if you aren’t sure if you should r r peat, most AOS will be willing to talk about the decision with you.

Thank you, I didn’t know a lot of people repeated 9th grade. I know I really want to repeat a grade and I have reasoning behind it. Thanks again

I agree with @gardenstategal but I will add that all AOs should be willing to discuss this with you. If they were not, then perhaps that’s not the right school for you.
