<p>This is it so far</p>

<p>What does everyone think?</p>

2

<p>you probably need to get to 2100+ for WUSTL, and Boston College prob would want ~1900-2000ish. The others I really have no idea, but they are common safeties(except Babson, which is supposed to be pretty tough to get in, especially for business).</p>

<p>Bump...thanks</p>

5

<p>Bump...thanks</p>

<p>Yeah your list is in line. I'd say add Penn State if you like the larger school atmosphere as their business school is very good. Babson is not the easiest, but its not the toughest to get into. The mid range SAT score (old scale) was an 1160-1330 so anything in the mid to upper 1200's will put you in range. </p>

<p>I'm considering transferring to Bentley College which is similar to Babson in that it isn't the easiest nor the hardest of schools to get into. Might wanna give it a look and Holy Cross for their economics program which is very well regarded.</p>

7

<p>thank you for your insignt dunk</p>

8

<p>bumpppppp :)</p>

9

<p>dude, if your out of state, tcnj is a upper match, lower reach</p>

<p>match if you in state</p>

10

<p>hes out of state (NY)</p>

11

<p>thanks everyone...bump</p>

12

<p>Holy Cross has very good economics and accounting programs. Also HC has strong alumni network for job placement.</p>

13

<p>par72 no offense but what could be the reason for your Holy Cross praise 24/7</p>

14

<p>WUSTL and Babson are both reaches... everything else seems ok.. I would suggest you add purdue and IU-bloomington to your list for safeties</p>

15

<p>par72 is either a robot sent from the Holy Cross admissions office or just a really pathetic (and pertty desperate sounding) alum who has nothing better to do with his time than write the same one-liners in every thread ...</p>

16

<p>terry, you think babson is a reach?</p>

17

<p>yes... I would say slight reach though simply b/c your sat I's are kind of low but everything else is in order so you should be fine</p>

18

<p>I thought that it was a match but thanks for the insight...what do you think about bc?</p>

19

<p>I think BC places a lot more emphasis on test scores so they would be another slight reach I think... but if you like boston i think you could get into BU</p>

20

<p>i like the campus atmosphere...a BC rep said the other day that they don't put an emphasis on SAT's as on the college essay...do you see any way this could be true? How would I be affceted if I could get a 1900 or 1350 (out of 2)?</p>
