<p>I think you have a really great shot at admission - your ACT score is great, extra curricular activities show dedication over your time in high school, and hopefully your essay left a mark on the admission committee. If you have those three things, you are a “triple threat” in college admissions and have a good chance of getting in anywhere. I’m a sophomore at BC in the Honors Program now, and I think you stand a chance of making the Honors Program as well! Good luck.</p>
