Will Boston College be right for me?

<p>So I do not want to be a typical how are my chances.. I want replies so I'm trying to get enough info and ask ' what do you think I am capable of"</p>

<p>My parents want me in the best possible college and so do I. They do not realize I do not have the SAT scores, they just simply do not understand. I am practicing for the Fall SAT tests and have to take the subject tests. ACT was hard for me and I got a 23 first time.</p>

<p>I am not ultra rich, middle class, not really special, but I have struggled a lot in my life. I work very hard, have had some learning disabilities and even diagnosed as a child with autism. I do not use any special help though. </p>

<p>I love east coast and want to get away from Indiana to go there. Here I go to high cost catholic private school for best chances for college.</p>

<p>will work hard to increase SAT but I doubt IVY league is within reach.</p>
