Because the scoring scales are different depending on test and platform. (Khan Academy uses the "real" thing). I need to total score.
In the meanwhile, here's some more reading. These schools are relatively different in philosophy and outlook. Which ones appeal to you and why?

How do you know these whole lot of things ? I'm taking the PSAT but it's definitely long ! I printed 4 answers sheets (is sheets the right word ?) and I read the wording with the pdf file. I completed 1 sheet and a half. I am going to (look, I learned from my mistakes !) look at every website (I spent my time to find a High school, so that is going To be easier !) | | | À: Myos · 8 octobre 2017 à 20:05 Re: Scolarité aux États-Unis Message 25 de 35 · Page 2 de 2 · 632 affichages · Partager Here are my favorites schools, I am going to study more deeply the differents schools and the ones that you gave me.
I like them because they are serious, beautiful, large and all around NYC. I would like a school with these skills, with a big stadium, a lot of courses, like law or political sciences lessons and for sure pretty girls (haha a little bit of humo (u)r) ! You should know what I mean.
I believe I should read the books you spoke.
You're really a man of genius. Image attachée: | | | Yes, "answer sheet" is the right word. That's where the answers are, so you must only look at them AFTER you answered the questions! :D
A thread you'll enjoy reading. talk.collegeconfidential.com/...pauls-hotchkiss...
Some of the schools I listed are very famous. They're very, very hard to get into - your scores need to be very high. However they have excellent financial aid (I don't know how much your parents make, and DO NOT reveal this online, but these schools cost a lot of money because they're like small towns all for students.)
You shouldn't choose schools due to their location. You'll NEVER go to the city. You'll stay on campus and live there, which is why finding a "good fit" is essential. The campus and school, with their mission, their philosophy... must feel "like home". | | | À: Myos · 12 octobre 2017 à 20:05 Re: Scolarité aux États-Unis Message 27 de 35 · Page 2 de 2 · 600 affichages · Partager What do you mean when you say that I'll never go to the city ? Never never ? Cuz I love to spend good times in the cities... | | | À: Myos · 12 octobre 2017 à 20:14 Re: Scolarité aux États-Unis Message 28 de 35 · Page 2 de 2 · 598 affichages · Partager Hum, I don't think that my english is good enough to get into these schools. If that can help, I got family members in Boston, but I've never seen them before. | | | How often do you go to Paris? Not often, I bet. Perhaps for a vacation, when you're not in school. Well, it's the same here. You're not going on a tourist trip. You're going to school. So, you'll be attending school, doing your homework, participating in clubs and sport teams, going to cheer on sports game for your school (or play in it)... there'll be no time for trips to the city. You'll live on campus. The campus is set up like a small town, with many buildings, and that's where you'll spend your time. There'll be some long weekends when you'll get a pass to town if you didn't misbehave, and some longer breaks when you go wherever your friend(s) go home to, but day in, day out, you'll be living on campus... that's the whole point of a boarding school. To have a good idea, read/watch Harry Potter. Notice how much time they spend at Hogwarts, and how often they go off campus to Hogsmeade. | | | You're smart: make your English better. Read books in English (a list's been conveniently provided :p)
If you've never met your relatives in Boston, time for your parents to get in touch and see if you can go spend a couple weeks there over the summer. And, second, to look at boarding schools within a 60 miles radius to Boston (I'll do that, once you have a PSAT score).
BTW, if you're good at math, work on your math, because the French curriculum is slow and very bad compared to what many "advanced" kids have in the US. | | | À: Myos · 13 octobre 2017 à 7:33 Re: Scolarité aux États-Unis Message 31 de 35 · Page 2 de 2 · 578 affichages · Partager You're godddamn (sorry but I had to) right, I just have to work. My english because I'm going to speak that language everyday, and if I want to have a chance to get a into the schools, I must learn English.
My maths because I'm so good at maths but probably not compared to the US kids.
And become smarter because I like the work, and the knowledge.
Now it's time to. | | | À: Myos · 14 octobre 2017 à 12:07 Re: Scolarité aux États-Unis Message 32 de 35 · Page 2 de 2 · 560 affichages · Partager It's difficult to make a selection among: "A seperate peace", "to kill a mockingbird", "guns, germ & steel" and "Looking for Alaska" ! What's your advice ? | | | See if your local library has any of them and borrow them (many local libraries have books in English); then, with the amount of money you're allocated, buy the one(s) you like best. Then have the other one(s) on your "to read" list :) | | | À: Myos · 16 octobre 2017 à 17:49 Re: Scolarité aux États-Unis Message 34 de 35 · Page 2 de 2 · 546 affichages · Partager No the money is not a problem. I wanted to know which is more interesting, or better in comparison to the fact to make my english better. | | | To kill a mockingbird, A Separate Peace, are classics studied in the 9th grade. Looking for Alaska is one of the most banned books for youth (with Harry Potter) and well known from most Americans going to biaridng school. Guns, germs, and steel is part of the non fiction reading curriculum in the 10th or 11tg grade so it's harder and ahoukd probably be takxeled after the others | Discussions similaires sur les États-Unis: Trouvez des offres de séjours uniques avec nos partenaires Tous les droits réservés © 2026 MyAtlas Group | 11 907 visiteurs en ligne depuis une heure! | |  |
