菲利普斯學校安多佛

幫孩子申請Andover線下夏校，孩子能夠體驗到美高寄宿學校的課堂氛圍、了解課堂的學習，在校生活等，要根據孩子的興趣愛好選擇夏校項目活動，但其實對未來申請到Andover并沒有什么大的幫助，不過對將來學校面試能夠加點分有的聊。

Andover and Exeter are related. Different members of the same family founded each school. Samuel Phillips founded Andover in 1778; his Uncle, John Phillips, founded Exeter in 1781, Hence, Andover is known as Phillips Academy (PA), and Exeter is called Phillips Exeter Academy (PEA). Andover and Exeter are also connected in the public imagination. In an episode of the Simpsons, a salesman at a fund raiser tries to sell Homer a t-shirt for the local school his children attend. When Homer refuses to buy that t-shirt because he does not want to be associated with that local school, the vendor says that his two best-selling t-shirts are "Phillips Springfield Andover" and "Phillips Springfield Exeter." As for Andover and Exeter, the important question is not which is the better school. It is which is the better school for you. That's a question of fit, and only you can answer that question for yourself. Some differences between Andover and Exeter are: A. Andover divides its dorms into five clusters; at Exeter, students typically remain in the same dorm until they graduate. B. Andover has a 1-6 grading system; Exeter has a 1-11 grading system. C. Andover offers need blind financial aid that admits applicants regardless of their financial background; Exeter is need aware. However, Exeter offers generous financial aid. D. Andover has one central dining hall; Exeter has two dining halls. E. Andover has fewer Saturday classes than Exeter. F. Exeter has a dress code; Andover does not. G. Last year, Andover had a lower admit rate, a higher yield, and (I believe) better college matriculation statistics than Exeter. Nevertheless, Exeter is extremely difficult to get into, very popular, and does exceptionally well in placing students into top colleges. H. Exeter prides itself on the Harkness Method (student centered discussions), which it typically uses in all classes, including Math and Science; Andover stresses critical thinking as well but does so through a wide range of teaching approaches that generally do not include the Harkness Method in Math or Science. I. Some people think Exeter has a nicer campus than Andover; others prefer Andover's campus. Both campuses are very nice. J. Some people say that Andover is better in the humanities than Exeter and that Exeter is better in Math and Science than Andover. I don't buy that theory. Both schools are generally excellent in all fields. K. Andover is closer to Boston than Exeter. Good luck! 如果有用不要忘記點贊哈

PEA自己說每年0 -15個，取決于每年狀況。

參考一下扎克伯格的例子，11年級紐約Ardsley轉學到Exeter，之前兩年高中非全A，沒有SAT，但數學和歷史(古典學)成績突出，體育參與一般，但極度熱愛編程，已開發出幾款軟件并成立公司。總結：學業上、背景有突出亮點，其余沒硬傷。另外，他之所以轉學，是社交上有問題（被視作怪胎并受欺負）。 中高年級轉頂級學校，基本標化和GPA權重很小，要看你突出的部分能為學校帶來什么

中高年級轉頂級學校，標化和GPA權重很小，要看你突出的特色能為學校帶來什么。 參考一下扎克伯格的例子，11年級紐約Ardsley轉學到Exeter，之前兩年高中非全A，沒有SAT，但數學和歷史(古典學)成績突出，體育參與一般，但極度熱愛編程，已開發出幾款軟件并成立公司。總結：學業上、背景有突出亮點，其余沒硬傷。另外，他之所以轉學，是社交上有問題（被視作怪胎并受欺負）。

這位家長您好： 估計Phillips Academy Andover 今年總申請人數比以往都多不少，其中包括了很多美國當地的學生以及南美的留學生。Phillips Academy Andover 11年級錄取的學生非常非常少，要求也極為嚴苛，需要學生有很強的SAT成績，學術和課外活動背景。對于留學生來說錄取率是很低的，不建議申請11年級哦。

當然有很多不同，我們有一個數據表，至少有大概30多項的不同，這里舉些例子：（1）三所學校的地域位置不同，俗話說，位置位置還是位置；（2）三所學校STEM厲害度完全不同，Groton和Andover不是一個檔次的STEM學校。比如參加少年諾貝獎之稱的雷杰納隆的科學比賽安多佛是最起勁的學校了，年年有進入前40的，今年也不例外，學校科研設施和做研究的環境一流，堪比大學水平，特別是生物學課的研究，進入分子生物學水準。所以從錄取STEM拔尖的大學，比如麻省理工，加州理工，哈維穆德，斯坦福，Groton幾乎16-20年是沒有的。但是安多福很多，Exeter也是不落其后，故此就是可以看出這些學校的不同了。 補充到，如果你查看niche 排名，Stem排名7880所學校，安多佛是第4，但是Exeter是第8，Groton是第33了。這是很大的不同的。反映到升學上STEM厲害的學校升學沒有。所以理工男Groton不一定很有優勢，但是安多佛和Exeter就太棒了！文課法律上那么三所學校各有千秋了。
