<p>chances for transfer…</p>
<p>HS GPA: 3.1 wieghted, 2.7 UW
college GPA (at st johns college): 2.97
SAT I: 800V, 710M, 740W</p>
<p>with really good essays/recs would i have a shot???</p>
<p>Look up the common data set? That will tell you more than my opinion will.</p>
<p>yes you do
why is your college GPA so low? if you applied directly to bu with your hs status you would have been in for sure</p>
<p>because st johns is a whack school and we dont have tests, quizzes, or papers and we get graded on nothing more than our participation and our enthusiasm for the program. do you really think id have a shot though? i want to get out of here and im really worried that i wont get accepted.</p>
<p>there average GPA is 3.5, but there average SAt is like 1200ish...sp can a high SAT compensate for low GPA?</p>
<p>Average SAT at BC is 1380, and now it is higher with increased competition across the board. I'd say with strong essays you would be a very strong applicant.</p>
<p>Wow! you have a very high SAT1 score, but your HS and college GPA did really take a beating. I think you have a chance but it's on the balance. You really have to explain to the admission officer your case and let them understand your circumstances. Don't sell your self cheap but don't be defensive, just all honesty.</p>
