I am thinking of applying to Phillips Academy as an 11th grader, and I have the option of taking the SAT or the SSAT. Which one should I take?
If you are entering the 10th grade in the Fall, you should consider applying as a repeat 10th grader, in which case take the SSAT. Spots for 11th graders are few and your chances of admission are likely lower. Regardless, you’ll likely have a stronger SSAT score.
An SSAT would probably be better since that’s the one that is for boarding schools. Maybe both?
