<p>Of the schools on your list, I applied to Bowdoin, Colby, and BC. I was accepted at all with higher GPA/SAT scores than you and more AP tests. However you do have something unique, which is your horseback riding. If you craft an excellent essay I think you have a good chance. Keep in mind how many (thousands of) other qualified kids apply. In the end, I chose Colby.</p>
