What are my chances of getting into boston college?

<p>i am a senior this year and here is what i have done</p>

<p>last year i took the only ap offered at my school american history and got a four on the ap exam
this year i am taking all of the aps offered at my school which include biology, us government, calculus, and english
i also took a spanish university course through my school my junior year and am taking another one this year</p>

<p>i have a 4.02 GPA unweighted
my school does not rank or weight GPAs</p>

<p>i received a 1350 combined out of 1600 on my sats</p>

<p>i play varsity level lacrosse and soccer </p>

<p>i am a writing and math tutor in my school</p>

<p>i am a member of national honors society</p>

<p>i take part in many community service activities including:
a member of junior ladies of charity and an officer for my school
i am the youngest female volunteer ski partoller
and i volunteer at a free medical clinic in the poor inner city where i live
also a member of math SADD, math club, art for the heart, pep club
i have preformed over 500+ hours of community service</p>

<p>i am applying early action this fall</p>

<p>also my sister currently attends Boston College and is in the honors course, is the head of their volunteer program, is pre-med, and is 21st in her class</p>

<p>thank you for any commets and thoughts!</p>

<p>also i have a 29 on my acts
and a 670 biology SATII
and 630 us history SATII</p>

<p>bump chance me ill chance you back!</p>

<p>I think that Boston College is a low reach for you. Are you submitting your ACT or SAT II's & SAT I?</p>

<p>i was going to give both because the scores are about the same </p>

<p>i have a 29 on ACT 30 superscored
and my sats are even with that so i was told to submit them both</p>

<p>For Boston College, isn't the only option to submit either the ACT w/writing or SAT I + 2 SAT II's? I'm applying to Boston College as well this year and that's what I thought. Anyways, hopefully you get in and good luck!</p>

<p>i was told by my advisors that you can submit the other under additional information and the school would look at it</p>

<p>bump.
any other thoughts?
also im dyslexic i dont know if this would help at all becasue i have really good grades with this disability</p>

<p>I'd say you have pretty fair chances, but I offer one piece of advice:</p>

<p>Be VERY careful how you go about talking about your disability. You do not want to use it as a selling point or an excuse for w/e shortcomings your application has. Depending on how you throw in this little tidbit really could swing an acceptance to a rejection or visa-versa.</p>

<p>i am using it more in the sense that i am very determined today many people dont even know that i have dyslexia through my hard work and determination i was able to overcome it and succeed and today i have a 4.02 GPA with taking all aps and having dyslexia
i dont plan on using it has an excuse for anything on my app though but thats why im asking because i know it could swing me either way
thanks so much for your suggestions and thoughts
anyone else? any ideas?</p>

<p>I think it'd be a mid to high match and admire your spirit :) .</p>

<p>high match/low reach for BC
nice GPA, SATs could be a bit better but not too bad</p>

<p><a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/581852-i-have-potentially-fatal-disease-my-life-up-chance-me.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/581852-i-have-potentially-fatal-disease-my-life-up-chance-me.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>also i am editor in chief of my school newspaper
chance me please!</p>

<p>Being editor in chief of a school paper goes a long way, and if you can play sports for BC, even better. Your grades and test scores should be enough to push you over the edge if you're applying EA. I had a buddy with a pretty similar resume who got in last year. I'd peg you at about 80% chance.</p>

<p>chance me back ;)? <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/583796-ed-columbia-input-here-other-schools-please.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/583796-ed-columbia-input-here-other-schools-please.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>hey just bumping again
anyone else?!</p>

<p>well, since your school only offered that ap course, then BC should understand...they may ask to see how the curriculum works there just to get a view of it. other than that, you seem to have plenty of ecs, volunteer work, and the grades, so your chance is definitely more than half. </p>

<p>plus, you have sports so as long as you ace the essay, then your chances are high.
ugh...mines kinda long.
