Hello all, I applied to BU for Early Decision 2 and I got really good recommendations from my teachers and employer. I also have good extracurriculars and sports. My supplement and personal essay were really good according to my teachers and friends. But the only thing i’m scared of is my stats. I took a lot of honors and AP classes, I took 5 AP classes my junior year and taking 3 currently in my senior year. I had a bad year my sophomore year due to family issues (illness in the family) but I indicated it on my essay. Im just scared right now. Are my chances like extremely low?

My GPA : 3.52
SAT highest : 1050

With a 1050 on the SAT, BU is going to be unrealistic right now. I would recommend seriously studying and re-taking your SAT. You’re going to need at least 300 more points for your application to be competitive enough to be considered. Or you could consider other universities as well. There are plenty that will let you in with those scores.

Best of luck! :slight_smile:
