High School Junior Getting Jumpstart!

Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>Hey Guys, I'm new here. I'm actually only a junior this year, but wanted to get a jumpstart on the whole 'finding the right college for me'. I thought I would have a pretty impressive application, able to get into colleges like BU and having BC as a reach, but after looking at the apps on this site.. I don't know anymore! Anyways, here we go! </p>

<p>Weighted GPA: 3.94 (Don't know my UW)
Class Rank: Top 20 out of 200. (Not sure exactly where, only confirmed I was top 20 by guidance counselor.)
ACT/SAT will be taken in DEC, and retaken several times most likely. </p>

<p>I'm taking all possible AP classes this year, Biology and US History. Next Year, I'll take Modern Euro, and possibly Physics. (Which would mean a Physics course at a CC over the summer.)</p>

<p>Besides that, I've been in all Honors English, Sciences, History, Spanish (Besides this year, dropped down to college prep), and accelerated Math courses. (A year ahead, ALG II Frosh, Geom Soph, PreCal Junior.)</p>

<p>Pre Highschool

-BPE AAU Basketball
-International Student Exchange Club
-Relay for Life Team Member
-Physical Training Program</p>

<p>Junior Year

-National History Day (Possibly. If you don't know, it's a nation wide Science fair, for history.)</p>

<p>Other Information
-My school/town is a fairly small town with very little to do, and little opportunity. However this year, I'm broadening my range and will be doing various volunteer projects through the year and summer. </p>

<p>-Also, I've had a job for Sophomore year summer, and through Junior year so far, I have been working two jobs. </p>

<p>Colleges I have interest in..
BU
Bentley
Bryant
University of Vermont
University of New Hampshire
Quinnipiac University
Suffolk University
GWU
BC
Syracuse University</p>

<p>I was wondering if you all could chance me on the above schools, according to my stats so far. I know it's hard without a SAT or ACT score, but I predict around 1800-2000 and maybe a 28-32 on my ACT? This is predicted through my practice tests. </p>

<p>Any feedback, included colleges for me to look into would be GREATLY APPRECAITED! Help a brother out! :)</p>

<p>They’re all really great schools, BC and BU are awesome, BC is probably better if your a student, BU is the best for research. Personally I think Bryant Bentley and Quinnipiac are some of the best and most underrated schools in the nation. They can sometimes get over looked just because they are in the northeast which hold some of the best colleges in the nation. Bryant is really awsome, I live near there, one of the best campuses in the nation. Also 1 of the best business programs in the nation. D1 sports. Bentley is great as well. UVM and UNH are also solid. Suffolk is in a great location but with your resume its nothing more than a safety school. I would seriously look at BC BU Quinnipiac and Bryant</p>

<p>If you think being in your 2nd semester as a junior is a headstart…well, maybe at your school, but there are kids who start this process way younger.</p>
