Yea I think its a match. Your 92 translates to a 3.7 (Unweighted?). If that is weighted then it will be a lot more difficult.

@nastassjaa If your school does not do GPA, can you post all the letter grades/percentage grades you have received? Without GPA, one cannot assess your chances.
@jackisawesome Unfortunately the best thing I can provide is my predicted grades for each IB subject

History HL: 5/6
Theatre HL: 5
Maths Studies SL: 6
Mandarin B SL: 6
ESS SL: 5/6
Total: 35/42 (without bonus TOK/EE points)
I’ve tried to use several “IB to GPA converters”, but they all give me different results. I would say it ranges from a 3.7-3.9?
@aik257 my SAT scores were definitely on the low side as well and I got accepted into CGS. my
mom also went to BU but honestly I don’t think it counts for that much unless they donate a lot of money to the school. But try not to worry about your SAT score, BU looks at a lot more than just that compared to other schools
Is anyone else nervous about finding out on the 19th?
@lana22 I’m confident about my general acceptance, but extremely nervous for all of the extra stuff that I would need/like in order to attend :-SS
I don’t really know about me, I applied to the business school but also selected I would want to be accepted into CGS. I live right outside of Boston and a lot of kids apply from my school so I will like that could hurt me.
I think i might get accepted but have no chance for the Presedential. And without any scholarship BU won’t be worth it for me
i think i may get accepted, the presidential scholarship would be great though
a tonnnnn of kids apply from my school. too bad i missed the cardinal medieros scholarship.
Only a few days now :-SS
When are the results coming out?
@WonwillP they are coming out the 19th!! (saturday)
So will I get a email?
I think some decisions are already put up…check the bu applicant link
@anxious18 I doubt that. Why do you think so?
Mines not
@pallavijaniani i just checked my applicant link. On the right hand side click on decisions ( above application
status) I got a regret :-S
@anxious18 can you show us a picture of what you are seeing?
