<p>I think you have a shot at both BC and Georgetown, especially since they are Jesuit colleges.</p>

<p>Your gpa is going to hurt you, is the w on a 4.5 or a 5.0? 5.0 and it will kill you even for UMDCP, especially if you are from NJ.</p>

<p>First off, you’re not average. The thought of surviving one AP class makes the average kid’s blood boil and the diversity of your ECs is respectable
I digress. With BU and Georgetown it’ll come down to how you present yourself in your essay. I’ve seen people admitted into College Park with lower GPAs and weaker credentials than yours.</p>

<p>I agree with bulletandpima. I don’t understand how you can consider yourself to be average. :)</p>
