[quote=Anonymous]It is not about one factor. A kid could have a very high SSAT score but bring little else to the plate. They are looking at scores, grades, extra-curriculars, sports, outside interests, parents, recommendations, monetary and volunteer contributions, former school reviews of both kid and parents, where you live, how likely you will be to accept, unique kid talents and the personality and spirit of the kid. Also the kid's interview skills and ability to interact with everyone there. Each one of these gets "graded" by the AD Committee. It's about your total score and how likely the child will be able to thrive at the school.[/quote]
