<p>As a BC parent, knowing a little bit about the school, I think you have a “fair” shot using your ACT score. Your GPA and course rigor is solid and so are your athletic EC’s (wow)! Your other EC’s are pretty thin though, and this may hurt you your chances somewhat. If you work at the Maidstone Golf Club that means you are probably form the Hamptons, right? If so, I’d say you are a low reach (kind of an over-represented area) or maybe a LOW, LOW reach or possibly a REALLY, REALLY, high match. I hope your writing skills work wonders on the adcom folks and that your recs are out of this world… Good luck!</p>
