<p>yea I think that with your stats, and E.C’s you have a good shot at getting in. Im also a white, male from Long Island with very similar stats (SAT 2120, 800V, 670 M, and 650 W), and I too applied EA. Best of luck in the rest of the admissions process.</p>

<p>any1 else wanna chance me?</p>

<p>I think you have a shot but it also depends on the applicant pool for early action. If not denied then they will place you in the RD group.</p>

<p>BTW, are your scores from one sitting or multiple? They tend to take the top scores from two or more sittings.</p>

5

<p>Yeah mine are top from 2 scores for SAT and 1 sitting for ACT.</p>

<p>i think ur stats make u semi over qualified for BC… what makes u think u WONT get in… just curious lol</p>

<p>Look at the decisions thread(s) from last year - BC has gotten a lot more competitive.</p>

8

<p>Now that BC is getting 26,000+ applications, lots of applicants with better credentials than yours got rejected last year. Being a white male from a Catholic school on Long Island isn’t exactly a novelty, which makes your degree of difficulty even higher. But your SATs are about dead-center average, so don’t give up hope.</p>
