My chances

Hey guys, first time poster here.

Graduated from Ethical and I'm going into my second year at Eaglebrook in the fall. I really want to get into Exeter or Andover but let's assume that I don't and wind up at a non-target like Berkshire. If that happens, will I honestly have a chance at IB? Also, I'd be a fifth-generation legacy at Princeton so I think I'll have a good shot at getting in but I'm really worried that going to a lower-tier prep school will hurt of chances of FT. Thanks in advance.
