Hi! I am Calvin and I am currently studying in Shanghai High School International Division. I am considering to apply to Groton School,The Hotchkiss School, and Concord Academy. I visited all three schools and finished my interviews already. I even managed to contact the Director for History Department for Groton School and we had a hearty chat. The Director for Admission(The lady who interviewed me) for Groton School actually wrote me a handwritten letter after the interview! My SSAT score is a 94%(2226) and my TOEFL is a 106. I performed well in the Iowa Assessment Test and finishing with a 98 percentile. I am really passionate about History,Debate and Geography. I got the first place for History Bowl in Asia and was ranked forth in Local Round for World Scholar's Cup. I also like to swim and I got 4 medals for my school's swimming competition. My only problem is that my score in school is not that satisfactory.Thank you!

What do you mean by 'not that satisfactory'? The schools you are applying are not expecting all straight A students, but if it's straight B, you'll get a lot of explaining works to do.
