<p>Hi! First off congrats!! I am a HS junior from the Chicagoland area (private Catholic school) and I have my heart set on nursing. BC is definitely one of my top choices if not THE top choice. I just have some random questions, one being the typical “chance me.”</p>
<p>I would really appreciate if you could post your stats for me, just so I can get a feel for what I’ll be up against next year. Please include if you applied early or regular and also where you are from! I am also pretty sure that I’m only taking the ACT so I’d especially like those of you who submitted ACT scores to post!</p>
<p>If you visited the college, what drew you in? What makes BC special to you? I love the city of Boston and have been there before but have not yet visited BC.</p>
<p>I can give you a quick idea of where I stand in high school…top 8% or so (self-calculated since there are no ranks), 98.97% weighted cumulative average over 5 semesters. My most recent semester was a 4.2 (calculated myself) and a 99.70%. Toughest curriculum possible with the exception of the subject of history (ick).
Extracurriculars are NHS, Italian NHS, Italian Club, Science Club, did softball for 2 years (not through school) but I cannot anymore since I just had ACL surgery. I have almost 100 hours of service as of now: 75 for school requirement and 25 extra, and will continue service at a hospital (71.5 hours were completed at the hospital). I am hoping to get a job this summer after recovering from surgery and ofcourse having a break from school.
ACT first time I got a 30 and I am taking it again in 5 days.</p>
<p>THANK YOU!! And also this thread isn’t just limited to nursing students. Anyone can really post.</p>
