Applying EDII, Undeclared in either CGS or CAS
White female attending a public high school in MA
School doesn’t rank
GPA: 3.4W (pretty extreme upward trend, as mentioned in the title-- 2.8 freshman year, 3.4 sophomore year, 3.8 junior year, looking at about a 4.4 or higher for senior year but that’s not final yet), my school doesn’t calculate UW but I think that’s probably close to 3.2?
ACT: 33
APs: didn’t start taking any until senior year, but I am currently enrolled in AP Psych, AP Environmental Science and AP Art History
Extracurriculars:
3 years in Mock Trial
2 years in Art Club
2 years in Book Club
1 year in Clay Club
2 years of volunteering at a dog rescue (100+ hours)
religious education teacher’s aide (only about 10 hours)
began working at a pizzeria in August as a server/cashier
Awards: Four-year John and Abigail Adams Scholarship (I know everyone probably has this listed but I don’t have any other awards so I figured it’s better than nothing)
Essays/recs: As far as recs I’m not really sure, probably not awful but they might come off as a bit generic. I wrote my essay on failing my driver’s test (twice lol) and was told it was pretty good, and I’m still in the planning stages for the supplemental
I toured the college over the summer and also signed up for the mailing list
If it helps, I also applied to Northeastern on ED and was denied, and I am applying to UMass Amherst, UConn, UNH, and Quinnipiac on RD.
I would really appreciate ANY feedback. The fact that I’ve already been rejected is kind of stressing me out and I really just want to know what I should be prepared to hear from BU.
