<p>Hm. I know BUs stats on college board are mediocre, but almost all of the non-CGS kids on my floor here at BU are 2100+ for SATs. Unless you’re going CGS, get those numbers up!</p>

<p>@timesnewroman 2100+ SAT scores? wow! Those scores can’t be average. I’d say top 25% of the incoming class. I’m applying to CAS with a 2010 SAT, 3.8 UW, 4.3 W, 32/374 class rank. Your scaring me…</p>

<p>Lightsout-
On Naviance, it said the average GPA is 3.74, average sat is a 1998, and an average ACT of 30. I don’t think you have anything to worry about!</p>
