我不是Jean老師,不過看了你的問題,我根本我這幾年小齡留學生的錄取經(jīng)驗,講講我的一些看法。我經(jīng)常會和一些學校的招生官交流意見,想知道他們根據(jù)哪些方面來評估學生。從眾多的美國學校的招生官那里的意見得出:申請6年級,SSAT成績和托福成績都不會是主要的錄取因素,只是用來參考,而且影響錄取結果是有限的,這跟美國高中的錄取所考慮的因素是有區(qū)別。學校更看重學生的一些潛能和個人特征,比如學校根據(jù)學生的個人特點,評估學生可能會到達的水平。一個五、六年級的學生,目前的考試分數(shù),將來的變化是很大的。你有綠卡或你是美國公民,在波士頓,有很多優(yōu)秀的公立初中可以考慮。

It seems that your son applied to junior boarding schools and did not get any offer. I am sorry to hear that. As I discover every year, the competition among Chinese students for boarding schools become fiercely competitive. I am sure that your son was one of good candidates, however schools just could not have them all. Since your son is 6th grader, I encourage you not to be stressed out, rather to try to find some alternatives. Your son might go to a good private school (day or public) which has a good record of sending its graduates to top private high schools. Starting and studying early in a good American junior school (6-8), as far as I am concerned, has some definite advantages when your son applies to the private/boarding school later. It is not too late. And you do not have to be discouraged. Or you might seek some advice from education professionals.

很遺憾地得知您兒子申請中學寄宿學校沒有成功的消息。中國學生去寄宿學校的競爭日益激烈。我相信你的孩子是一個很好的申請者,只是由于某種原因沒有被錄取。您的孩子剛剛6年級,所以請不要過于緊張,可以嘗試其他選擇。您可以選擇優(yōu)秀畢業(yè)生多的私立學校(私立或是寄宿)。在一個好的美國學校讀初中(6-8年級)。我認為這樣對于您兒子將來申請其他私立寄宿學校更有優(yōu)勢。您不必氣餒,可以到專業(yè)教育咨詢?nèi)耸磕抢飳で髱椭?
