<p>I think the weakest part of the application is the GPA, but your strengths in other areas should make up for that. I would say if you write a strong essay then it should be easily attainable for you!</p>

<p>I think you have a great chance! All your stats seem to fall within Boston College’s normal range–which is good! The only thing that is a little low is your rank, but that probably doesn’t matter and just points to the difficulty of your school. </p>

<p>Chance back :slight_smile: ? </p>

<p>My counselor gave me a statistic from a couple years back that said BC accepted 81% of their applicants from the top 10% of their class, so it might be tough. However you extracurriculars are really impressive and if you wrote a solid essay you could definitely have shot. Chance back?</p>
