SERVING BOSTON SINCE 1994
With the impact of COVID, many parents realize that private schools could could give students more of an upper hand than public schools. The past school year just 5% of private school were virtual compared to 62% of public schools, According to Axios. Many parents have misconceptions about how top private schools select their students. Parents may think with outstanding GPAs and some on campus and off campus activities, their students will easily be accepted by top-notch private schools. But
“Sometimes, the most brilliant and intelligent minds do not shine in standardized tests because they do not have standardized minds. “–Diane Ravitch
Most Qualified students will contempt the standardized test, like SSAT, the Secondary School Admission Test or the ISEE (Independent School Entrance Examination), which are required by most private schools.
Top private schools will have strict rules about standardized tests. For example, The Winsor School will not accept “superscore” which means students will most likely only have one chance to take the test. In this case, timing is critical for all applicants. ISEE & SSAT test preparation process varies from person to person, some of ASC A+ program students take 1 month, while others may take up to 1 year. Get yourself and your kid(s) prepared. According to the feedback from students who are accepted by top private schools, like The Roxbury Latin School, BB&N, Noble and Greenough School, Winsor School, Phillips Academy — Andover, they all have one application component in common – All of them got astonish standardized test results.
Another critically important application components the admissions committee uses to select their students are the application essays. One student is interested in math, for example, used her essays to show her passion in Math. She focused on why she was passionate about math, discussed the math competitions she attended and other activities she takes related to math. The admissions committee was clearly impressed with her effort and selected her for admissions to their school.
The Interview
Interview is another important tool the admissions committee uses to help them make their decision. They are looking for what sets your student apart from other similar applicants with excellent GPAs, test scores and extracurriculars. Make sure your Student is prepared with Private School Counseling when the admission committee asks, “what do you like to read outside of school?”.
