What chance do I have to get into St. Paul's School?

Question

I was thinking about applying to St. Paul's for 9th grade. My grades from 6th and 7th are as following:

6th grade:

Math C

Science A

Spanish A

Language Arts A

Social Studies B

7th Grade:

Math A

Language Arts A

Science B

Social Studies B

Spanish A

If I got all A's in 8th grade could I get in?

Plus I'v been playing violin since 6th grade and I play tennis.

Thanks :)

Grades aren't everything... It is nice that you got your math grade up but you need to keep all others up as well, that being said try and maintain straight a's in 8th grade. What are your extra curriculars? Community service?Awards? How are your teacher reccomendations. Playing violin for two years along with tennis is nothing. There are prodigy's who have been playing for a decade at Saint Paul's. Also make sure you study hard for the ssat's, aim for 90th percentile although anything above 70th is fine. Also do well in your interview. You really supplied us with very little information, there is much more to an application.
