<p>I wanted to know if I even have a chance of getting into Boston university. My gpa and SAT are not so high. </p>
<p>-I am applying early decision to help my chances</p>
<p>-gpa: 3.39
I know, it looks bad. But it is the few Cs I got in 9th grade that really brings it down. My report card does show progress. Every year my gpa gets higher. In 11th grade first semester I ended with a 3.6 and then a 3.8 second semester. </p>
<p>-SAT: Haven’t taken them but will probably get in the 1600s. I know, its bad. But I suck at the sat. I dont even understand why colleges care so much about them anymore. It is proven that the SAT is not valid in predicting how well students will do in college. </p>
<p>APs- Two in 11th grade. Got A- in both. I am now taking AP stat and AP art.</p>
<p>classes- 4 yrs of math, 4 yrs of history, 3 of language. So I went above the minimum. </p>
<p>Essay- I have been working on it for months. My councilor read it and said it was great. Now i am working to make it even more amazing. </p>
<p>Extra curricular- captain of football, agenda rep for 4yrs, internship at a law firm, VP of another committee, worked in summer camps and other jobs, 100 hours of community service. </p>
<p>PS. I also go to a private Jewish school where I have to take three extra Judaic classes, and their not easy. Because of that, school ends at 5, which means I also have less time to do hw and cannot take so many APs. I am also required to take 5 different history classes, 2 extra than most high schools. I don’t know if this will help my chance or not. </p>
<p>Any information or critique would be much appreciated. I really want to go to Boston and want to know my chances of getting in.</p>
