GPA: 3.96 UW
Class Rank: 9/215 (extremely competitive private school)
SAT I: 1510; Read/Writ: 710, Math: 800
APs: Human Geo, Euro, APUSH, Bio, Seminar, Calc AB, Chem, Latin, US Gov’t, Calc BC
ECs: -President of Latin club
-VP of environmental club
-Editor of Yearbook
-major role in school musical(s)
-varsity cross country
-NHS
-active role in campus ministry
-avid church and hospital volunteer

BC is my number one choice, if that would help.

I’m no expert, but I also go to an extremely competitive private school. My accolades are below (maybe even well below) yours and BC is a match for me.

3

You look to be very
competitive for BC. You should definitely apply EA.

I have no idea why you’re even asking.
You exceed the mid-50% in every way.

I’d say you have a great chance of making it into the Honors program! Maybe try to raise your reading/writing score a little bit, but I’m not even sure if that’s necessary. Channel your passion for BC into your essay, and you’ll do great!
