College admisson?
Excluding your lower-end GPA, you are extremely competitive. Your extracirriculars are also a bit on the low side but your scores are phenomenal. I believe you will get in to all of the colleges you have listed. If you didn't have that lower GPA you could aim very top tier. I would suggest a few higher level schools that are pretty reasonable such as New York University (Outside of Mass, Yes), Williams (High reach for you), Amherst (High Reach as well),and Tufts (Reasonable reach, great school). I would mainly focus on NYU and Tufts if you are at all interested. Tufts is in Mass and is a great, great school. You should have a pretty good shot.
Reply:I agree with nate w. You should be fine at these schools, with BU probably being the toughest. And, you should shoot higher; Tufts is an excellent suggestion.





Did you take AP classes? If so, how many and what were your test scores? If you did very well, it could help mitigate your lower GPA.





Do you have leadership positions in your sports or clubs?





Do you think you'll have excellent letters of recommendation, with teachers talking up your intellectual potential, contribution to stimulating/thoughtful class discussion, etc.?





All of these things will help what looks to be a fairly solid foundation.





Good luck!
Reply:It looks really good. Stay on track, finish school. Make sure that you get some experience in your field before you graduate.
Reply:I got into northeastern with a 3.8 gpa, but only a 1980 SAT 1 score and almost no community service. so you'll almost deffinitely get into there, prolly BU too. it all depends though, good luck
