What's my chance for Babson ED?

Hi all,

I visited Babson not long ago and immediately feel this is the one that I want to go. I dreamed long to start my own business (though I haven’t really tried anything), and Babson is the right one for me to reach my goals.

My stats: ---------------------------

Asian boy, senior year

Academics:

  • GPA: 3.36 (weighted)
  • SAT: Math 670, Reading 710, Writing 710 (super scores)
  • ACT: 30
  • AP junior year: Physics, Psychology, Chinese,
  • AP senior year: Microeconomics, Environmental Science, Human Geography

Sports - fencing

  • US Fencing Association top-ranked fencer (A)
  • Won national medal once in 2014 in national championship (the highest national event)
  • High school team captain
  • Varsity member and starter since freshman year
  • Helped team win state championship twice (past two seasons)

EC:

  • Finished 9-year Chinese language education (with Spanish as foreign language in high school)
  • Obtained a certificate of HSK 4th Level (issued by the Chinese Government Language Council International)
  • Volunteer:
    • Camp counselor (2015, 2016): Helped children with muscular dystrophy diseases to engage in a variety of activities
    • Various community services, fund raising
  • Working experience:
    • Tutor: Chinese-English tutoring, 2015~2016
    • Intern: Wrote VBA/Python script to automate business invoice generation from orders and raw data

I spent lot of time in fencing, hoping it could help my college. Unfortunately Babson does not have a fencing team.

I know my GPA is low, and so are my test scores (as an Asian boy). I looked up in my high school Naviance chart, all previously accepted applicants had higher GPA than mine. But I’m really not good at school work or taking exams, although I believe I’m quick on learning things and getting things done.
This is why I’m asking my chance here.

BTW, I’m also considering Brandeis and visited there too. I feel that I have a good chance to get in from talking with their coaches (because of my fencing records, I guess).

I’m pretty sure I will get good recommendations, I’m working on my essays and have scheduled an interview with a Babson admission officers in two weeks.

I’m planning to do ED, do I have a good chance to get in?

Thanks a lot for hints/comments!
