<p>I'm not super worried about getting in. People think it's more difficult than it is. BC is quite competitive, but a significant number of people get in from my school with 30's and just "good" averages. While a lot of posters have excellent stats, those whose stats are slightly less impressive shouldn't freak out--as long as you have a decent (30+) ACT and ECs and have at least shown a strong effort on your transcript, you have a good shot.<--I hope that didn't sound like I'm bragging or that I don't think BC is an excellent school I just see a lot of people feeling inadequate/pessimistic about their chances. Good luck to everyone!</p>
<p>JR526, thank you. you're so reassuring. I got a 31 on my ACT and i've taken the hardest schedule i could have, but i'm REALLY really worried about getting in. I loveeee boston college and i really hope to go there.</p>
