<p>i think even with a 1900 you're in okay shape for these schools</p>

<p>getting up to a 2100 would just make them low match-safeties.</p>

<p>Wow really? I figured because my GPA is a bit on the low side it might of kept me out of these schools.</p>

<p>Your GPA isn't that low for your listed schools. Actually, BU's average GPA is only an A- (~3.6 on a 4.0 scale) and yours would be ~3.4. It's a bit low, but it doesn't throw you out of the game. If you raise your SAT scores to a 2000-2100, you'll have no problem. Your ECs seem fine, so I don't see any major weaknesses. Good luck!</p>

<p>chance me at "Are these safe to call my safety/ low match schools?"</p>

<p>an 84 is really low, i would think thats less than a 3.4, well maybe not. Either way I think you can defiantly get into BU, Northeastern is much more selective. They can both be done I would think</p>

<p>an 84 i think is a 3.4... but if she gets it up a little, i think she'll be competitive enough for BU and northeastern.</p>
