What would you like to know about it? Depends on what you want to know.

It's a private school where kids go to learn. There's Exeter Academy and there's Choate (in CT) that are two of the top private schools in the northeast.

If you can afford it, it's not a bad place to go. There are some excellent teachers and you can interact with other bright students as well.


Here's the link to their school if you want more specific info on the school.

Hope that helps!

it's in Exeter NH, historically significant in New England History (famous for Revotionary Re-Enactments). Dan Brown, the author of DaVinci Code and Angels and Demons lives nearby and cites PEA in his acknowledgments. Dan Brown is to Exeter,New Hampshire as Stephen King is to Bangor, Maine.
Classical New England surrounding a beautiful campus. The Library is new and LOADED - you want it, they got it. It is very challenging - they still teach Latin and high percentage (95 or more) go on to college and graduate schools. It unlocks the door to the Ivy League. During recent floods in NH, everybody helped moving records - made the Portsmouth Herald (a site you can check fro tidbits about PEA along with their own site.
Not sure what kind of essay got assigned to you or, more importantly, WHY?
This actually sounds more like one of their many pranks/cranks!
Maybe you'll end up at MIT..they are truly famous for their pranks like putting a Campus cop car on top of a roof!
