Hi everyone! I just wanted some advice about my situation.
Boston College is my top choice right now, but I can’t decide whether to do ED1, ED2, or just regular decision. I know that the applicants in ED are going to be on the more competitive side compared to regular decision, and my SAT right now is at the 25th percentile. I’m planning to take it again in October and December; however, I’m not very confident I will be able to raise it that much in October. Should I do ED2 and submit my December SAT score assuming that it will be higher than my October SAT? Or should I do regular decision with my December SAT since it’s going to be more competitive? I apologize if this is really confusing. Thank you so much.
I would not apply ED (1 or 2) with a first quartile test score, unless you have a big hook (athletic recruit, URM, published scholar, Olympic Athlete…). Prep hard and try to raise it.
Good luck.
