Your predicted scores are very good for this school, but not sure how much importance BU gives for predicted scores. I know that for American IBDP students we don’t send in predicted scores but I’m sure for international students they will care about it a lot more. Your ACT score is good but hopefully your upcoming scores can bump you up a couple points to secure admission. If you are sure that BU is the best fit for you then you should definitely do ED2 because you will have a better chance at getting accepted than doing RD. Some other schools you may be interested in are UT Austin, UVA, UGA, Georgia Tech, University of Maryland, and Rutgers. Good luck!

Thanks a lot!

Your IB predicted grades are good. An ACT 32-34 instead of 30 would make a big difference. I suspect that as an international male from India you’re going to have plenty of competition… Make sure you have a plan B. Good luck!
