<p>please chance?</p>

<p>I think you might have a good chance-- keep working hard, write a good essay, and maybe do some more service. Good luck!</p>

4

<p>You definitely have a chance. </p>

<p>Try to bring your SAT’s up a bit, and expand your EC’s a bit. Maybe take part in something over the summer that interests you. </p>

<p>Good luck.</p>

<p>Thank you. You don’t think my GPA makes BC a reach for me?</p>

6

<p>can’t really say if your GPA makes it a reach because we don’t know that stats of your school. in my school a 90-91 underweighted had a decent shot at BC, but yours might be different.</p>

<p>also depends if you were in honors classes (if ur school offered them).</p>

7

<p>By the time I graduate I will have taken 8 AP classes. All other classes besides electives are honors.</p>

<p>Bump with new SAT: 720 CR, 780 Math, 740 Writing</p>

9

<p>With that new SAT, you’re in great position. It’s hardest for white kids to get into BC, so that score will help a ton. A downtrend in grades, even if it’s AP, is definitely a bad thing though. Make sure you have a really solid first semester and I think you’ve got a pretty good shot.</p>
