<p>Thank you so much!</p>
<p>dont know much about Madision but BC-most likely reach BU- higher end match
tests are alright and GPA is pretty good</p>
<p>being a first-gen. college student helps you out a bit and if you are an URM thats another plus</p>
<p>thank you so much!</p>
<p>I am familiar with all 3 of these schools, so I’ll chance you. As biganthony said, being first generation is a hook.</p>
<p>BC-definite reach. ACT score too low.
BU-match/highish match.
UW-match…although admissions have become quite competitive for Madison, I think you will be admitted.</p>
<p>Can you try re-taking the ACT? That would definitely up your chances. Good luck to you!</p>
<p>Thank you so much! </p>
<p>I have tried taking the ACT but I got a 26…I am going to try one more time in September. </p>
<p>What about U of Michigan?</p>
<p>I’d say Michigan is a high match. If you are a resident of Michigan, I definitely think you’d be admitted.
Otherwise, high match.</p>
