<p>It seems like your stats are in about the 50th percentile (the average accepted) </p>

<p>Very good SAT. I got accepted with the same SAT :). Are you applying ED? They are 50th percentile I would guess. Your main deficiencies I would say are as follows. Although you have solid ECs, you are lacking the 1-2 outstanding ones most applicants have at this tier of school applicants. Most of the people I know, including myself, who have been accepted to schools liek BU, Tufts, Northeastern etc. had at least 1 internship, if not 2, and maybe something else quite extraordinary. You have a decent amount of APs, you do lack APs during your freshman and sophmore year, but it could be your school did not offer it then. For example, my high school offers 1 AP freshman year, up to 3 Sophmore year, and then you can really have unlimited from there. This is coming from a very good high school which totals at 26 APs offered.</p>
