<p>My D applied EA last year with almost identical stats and was accepted. She ultimately decided to go elsewhere, but seems like you are good EA candidate. Good Luck!</p>

<p>Thank you! Where did she end up going?</p>

<p>Id say your a match… good luck tho. Are you applying to CSOM or reg arts and sci?</p>

<p>CSOM, but I wanna double major in Accounting and International Studies!</p>

<p>id say ur in easy… u got a 34 in reading… Howd you approach it?</p>

<p>You are a good match but keep in mind when you are applying EA you are in the more competitive applicant pool. These are the candidates all vying for one of the limited number of Presidential Awards. Please write some good essays, have some nice recs, and get accepted so I can put you in touch with my daughter. She’s an accounting major in CSOM, at Boston College. Good luck!</p>

<p>I skimmed all of the passages, and I didn’t look at the questions first. That strategy has never worked for me. I tried to justify all my answers through text. evidence in the passage, which most times you can do. Thanks for your chancing!</p>

<p>You have a very good chance at acceptance. Good luck!</p>

<p>You’re fine!</p>

<p>no problem… good luck!!</p>
