Chances of getting into Phillips Academy (Andover)?
-
I am very, very passionate about going to this school, and I absolutely cannot wait for the decision to be mailed on March 10th! Does anybody have any experience in applying to this school? I would really like to know truly how difficult it is to get in and whether or not I even stand a chance. SSATs: 2310 (99 Percentile) Grades: Straight As (including one AP class) Extracurriculars: Piano (8 years), Swimming (6 years), SGA/Freshmen planning, Mock Trial Team (head prosecuting attorney), Model U.N. (president of Disarmament & International Security Committee), Debate Team (currently debating in regionals), Humanities & Arts Program, school's Literary Magazine (publisher/editor), Chinese School Languages I speak: Chinese, English, Russian, German, French, Spanish Also, I do not feel that my essay was particularly strong (due to my extremely annoying habit of procrastinating). Do I still have a chance of being accepted? I'm so nervous, and the suspense is driving me nuts!

Answer:
Of course you have a chance of being accepted! I wish I could tell you that it is a sure thing, but even with all your wonderful credentials, it isn't a sure thing. The school is very competitive and they have more qualified applicants than they have places for them. Based on what you have said, there should be no reason for your application to land in the reject pile right away. I think it will be given serious consideration. However, whether or not you are accepted will depend on the needs of the school for the incoming class and the qualifications of the other applicants. These are things beyond your control. Try to take your mind off the process until March 10th. If you want to talk to other applicants and current students, you can go to www.collegeconfidential.com and look for the Prep School Admissions board. Good luck!
