<p>Thanks in advanced for any suggestions/comments that you can give me</p>

<p>BU - Match
Clark - Safe Match</p>

<p>MIT- Maybe if you pray a lot
RPI- I'd say a reach
WPI- Slight reach to Match
BU - same as WPI</p>

<p>Why only an average essay? This could make a difference in how admissions reps perceive you, it is your chance to make yourself shine and show how you stand out from all the other average applicants at more competitive schools (why they should choose you over someone else with similar stats). You have some interesting computer science-related experiences and talents and although some of this should come through from recs and list of ECs, it could also be highlighted in your essay to show your love/passion for your chosen area of study.</p>
