你好!我的一個(gè)同學(xué)今年申請進(jìn)入了HOTCHKISS,她的托福上了110,SSAT94%。不過,經(jīng)過高申之后,我的確認(rèn)為成績不是最最重要的(當(dāng)然也不能差太遠(yuǎn)),更多還是像誠誠爸爸說的那樣,綜合考慮課外活動(dòng)、組織能力、業(yè)余愛好等等,而且我同樣認(rèn)為,面試非常重要,因?yàn)檫@是學(xué)校直接面對面了解你的機(jī)會(huì)。你的托福成績我認(rèn)為已經(jīng)夠了,而且相信SSAT也會(huì)取得相應(yīng)的好成績。如果你還有什么問題,可以登錄我的博客,里面有我的一系列高申心得http://blog.sina.com.cn/tigergaosanshui,希望能對你有所幫助!祝你好運(yùn)!

我今年有個(gè)學(xué)生,升到Hotchkiss,這個(gè)學(xué)生,成績方面,托福107,SSAT 92%,但看成績,不是最拔尖的。
但這個(gè)孩子從和她之前的接觸,我就能感覺到孩子的與眾不同,可能是家庭原因,孩子非常獨(dú)立,而且博覽群書。
看似柔弱的女孩子,內(nèi)心非常強(qiáng)大,還是上海復(fù)旦附中的,并且在復(fù)旦附中的成績,非常均勻,幾乎沒有偏科!
隨著后來給她做面試培訓(xùn),和她的聊的越來越多,就越能感覺到孩子不一樣。最后,孩子被錄取之后,收到學(xué)校老師的一封信,也CC給我。這些好學(xué)校,真的挺會(huì)挑學(xué)生的:(硬件 軟件 運(yùn)氣)一點(diǎn)都不差(面試她的老師,正好在上海待過一段時(shí)間,也知道復(fù)旦的孩子是如何優(yōu)秀。)
It has been so wonderful to get to know you through the application process this year. I remember how excited I was when I got to speak with someone from 復(fù)旦附中. I miss my years in Shanghai and at 復(fù)旦 very much but speaking with you helped me understand why it is good to get experience in many different places. I remember so clearly how you told me
這一點(diǎn)解釋了,為什么:
"My school is a very good one but you can't escape the system." You made it clear then, and you continued to make it clear in the rest of our conversations, that you were dedicated to learning as much as you could about as many things as you could and finding a way to integrate those experiences and ideas into your future. That is what impressed me most--your continued forward thinking. You knew where you had come from, and where you were, but you also know where you want to go.
I have told many people of our interview because of how impressive it was; your application showed even more depth about your own goals. The kind of passion and meticulousness that you demonstrated makes me feel that Hotchkiss is the perfect fit for someone of your intellect and personality.
希望這個(gè)可以幫到你!加油~ -
For Hotchkiss, TOEFL minimum is 100, so your child's score is good enough. For English SSAT, your child should try to get close to 90 percentile (%).
The school will not only look at the scores; they will also look at grades, extracurricular activities and how passionate your child is in what he likes to do. Most important are the essays. -
像是Hotchkiss這樣頂級(jí)的學(xué)校,除了成績,還會(huì)綜合看學(xué)生的各個(gè)方面,例如你的學(xué)術(shù)成績、課外活動(dòng)以及興趣特長。申請這些頂級(jí)的學(xué)校的學(xué)生,平均分都是T105 ,S93% ,達(dá)到了這個(gè)分?jǐn)?shù)那就要看其他方面了。
