Hello everyone. I’m a senior in high school.
So far I’ve been accepted into IU’s business school.

I’m applying to BC for CSOM.
I want to know how good my chances are for:

I go to a very competitive public high school. My gpa weighted is a 3.84 on a 4.0 scale. My unweighted is a 3.7. My most recent gpa this semester is a 4.5 w/ 3.8 uw. My gpa last semester junior year was 4.2 w/ 3.9 uw. My new SAT is a 1370/1600, but I tell people 1400 because those 30 points make me deeply insecure. My math was a 710, reading writing was 660.

Activities:
Varsity Runner for 3 years
Secretary of Democrats Club
Intern for Democrat Campaign
DECA Economics Officer
Leader of two DECA committees, and member of a third
Placed 5th at State Last year, and 2nd at District (for DECA)
Volunteer for church
Running Timer Volunteer
Worked for a year at burger joint

I applied regular decision.

College Essay: My college essay was amazing. I had many teachers look at it.
I have 3 Recs: I know one will be amazing. My AP Gov teacher and I had a beautiful relationship. I got one from a business teacher, she loved me and her other business teacher friend loved me. Then I have one from my spanish teacher, and I worked EXTREMELY hard in her class.

Your tests scores are definitely below average, especially in the RD round, but you never know. Your GPA seems in the range of what they are looking for and your EC’s and recs/essays appear to be outstanding. I believe you have a shot at getting in, but nothing’s certain.

You are close. I think it is a stretch for you personally. I do not wish to dash your hopes but want to give you an honest answer.

You should find out soon and I hope it is good news. Is BC your top choice?

Since you applied CSOM, I’d say you’re on the bubble… Could go either way. Hoping the best for you

You would have a better chance if you did not apply for Business.
