<p>You’re GPA is perhaps the only limiting factor. Otherwise, comparing with my stats, I have a somewhat higher (unweighted) GPA, even less extracurriculars, and a SAT score that is lower than your’s by roughly 200 points.</p>

<p>But still, you have a very good shot at getting in. Contrary to popular belief, BU is not that selective.</p>
