[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]For middle school admissions the school is typically looking for 95th percentile or higher on their OLSAT/SCAT test. This is not an official admissions office policy, but is what I was told by someone inside the school.[/quote] They want kids who do well on the test but 95% is not necessary (my kid got less than that and I know others as well). They also turn away some kids who do that well on the test because they are really looking for 1. boys who are academically prepared for the work AND 2. boys who would be a good fit for the school culture. It's not just about being smart. It's about the whole boy. The admissions office works really hard to identify boys who will be happy and successful at the school. This is one reason that there is not a set number of boys admitted each year. That said, admission is quite competitive.[/quote]
