Hi, i am currently in year 8 and thinking to take a need-blind financial aid at Phillips acedamy andover for year 9, i dont have much achievements nor have won may medals in competitions Though, im very active in extracurricular activities like i am in my schools drama club and stem club. Learning violin for almost 2 years now and also learning another instrument. Also, i have volunteered in a lot of organisations and charity. I am also a librarian at my school (dont know if that counts). But i dont have that impressive report card/grades at school. I was planning to give the ssat test and get exellent marks to cover my school grades, but after seeing the cost, i was planning not to since its not necessary and wont determine that much if i will get addmission in that school or not. Can anyone/ gloria please tell my chances of getting in the school Also is it compulsory to give the ssat test in order to get admission in a private school (andover) even if its optional to show it on the application. Can someone recommend if i should hive the ssat test or not? It would be a very big help, thabkyou 😊

The problem is that due to some issues, I didn't do the ssat and the fee waiver is not applicable for us 😢 . Plus I got to know about all this 3 months ago (when I posted the message) and the exam available for isee before the deadline (I planned to take ISEE because none of my parents English is THAT good nor is mine since I just moved to Uk from India) is in January. I cannot prepare the amount of maths in such a small amount of time with my extra curriculars and school exams to keep in mind since November - January is our exams This may sound like I am a bit lazy of me but I don't think I can handle that much amount of pressure so I don't want to waste the money when I know I will not do my best. About my interview I have confidence because my communication skills are pretty good and I have been recently watching a lot of interview videos. My essay is also good. About my grades I have absolutely no confidence. My current grades are absolutely amazing. I have got only A and A+ and a few B+ but in my year 7 grades I only have one A+, 4-5 A and the rest B or C.

Also I have some really good shots of impressing the school from the personal and teachers recommendation Unfortunately, there is nothing like the president or editor-in-chief of clubs. Nor students are allowed to run their own clubs.

Hi! It’s January 15, and the day of the deadline and I just submitted to Concord, Choate, and a few other schools. I’m really worried because i have all As and one B in the first quarter but a mix of As and Bs and one D on the current quarter because I’m taking really hard classes and have been hard to manage my time appropriately. However, I am a competitive martial artist for 7 years, was in a gifted and talented arts program, have played the piano for 7 years, was an active member of my technology student association and robotics club, and have been doing cheer and volleyball for about 2 years. I really hope my essays were good enough and idk if my teacher submitted good recs bc idk if they like me, i’m super quiet. Please let me know what you think? I also really want to apply for loomis but idk. Any interview tips, I have it coming up? 💕💕

I live in Australia and its easier to get a job and get uni no matter your grades because of things like TAFE and scholarships but I can’t stand living here and want to go over to boarding school in the uk with my passport and citizenship there(parents). I’m far from good enough to get in this schools. Everyone else is so intelligent so I honestly have no chance anymore 😭😭

dont give up on yourself so early and so easily. sometimes bad things in your environment can pull you down or sideline you for a year or more. there's always hope. decide what path you'd like to take in the next few years and if you want to get into a better school, find the test or opportunity you need to prove yourself and then buckle down and study really hard. you can do it. you may not get your dream opportunity but you will get SMARTER and you will IMPROVE GREATLY. Once you get there think of how good you'll feel looking back to when you thought you had no more chances! Life is hope. And there are always more chances... we're pulling for you.
