Simon's rock has a 50% acceptance rate. It is a competetive place but it is still not hard to get accepted.
Apply for an AEP Scholarship. If you win then you go the college for free.

They will take you.
Something like 85% of applicants get in.
It's very self-selecting. If you think this is the place for you, then just make your case (don't be afraid to BS it a bit) and they'll take you. They'll probably throw you a scholarship too.
Computer Science
Relatively easy to get in, acceptance rate well above 50% (have heard numbers ranging from 60-80%). Put a lot of thought into your essays.

I was myself. Be yourself.

It's pretty easy to get in. The Rock is very self-selecting. Generally, only academically motivated kids who would be a good fit apply, though thre are always exceptions.
You will write an essay and do an interview. Just be yourself, and don't be afraid to go out on a limb or write in a way that would be unacceptable at your high school. The Rock wants super-curious, gutsy, fiercely intelligent people and you should prove that to them. The Rock is all about thinking outside the box.

Make sure you're ready. Really ready. A lot of students go to SRC wanting to leave high school and think they are mature enough, but they're not. Be prepared for challenges. This is not an easy way out.
Math
Just act like you care and want go to Simon's Rock. In addition,to decent grades it is a walk in the park to get accepted.

There is a high acceptance rate, aside from filling out the application and attending the interview you don't need to try excessivly hard to get into Simon's Rock.
