Hellooooo, Babson looks fricken awesome
I really wanna go to Babson but i dunno what my chances are. I'd like an outsiders view on the whole situation.

I am 100% Japanese but born here in the U.S.

My GPA isnt very high due to my lacking in freshman and sophomore year.

It was a 3...

This year, junior year, im steppin up my game and have a 3.6...

not very good compared to other smart ass asians...

my ACT is probably gonna be around 27/28...

but yea...ill be doing this EC called 30 hour famine...

and I wanna play soccer there...Ill be playing at my school for 4 years...

So what are my chances...

One thing that you should clearly do is call the Babson soccer coach, tell him of your interest, and then send him a tape. If he's interested, he might be able to help you in the admissions process.

I've just started researching Babson myself...
Your stats are not that bad, but isn't 30 hour famine a one weekend kind of thing? my church hosts it annually, so to count it as an EC, you're organizing it or something...?
