<p>I rank you as match to slight reach at Boston College and match at everyplace else. Personally, I’d choose Connecticut over Drexel, but it really depends on whether you can handle a rural location over a metro location.</p>

<p>Make sure you send only the ACT score to Boston College (it’s the equivalent of 740/740/740 on the SAT I). </p>

<p>Emphasize your volunteer service and need to help out others in your application to Boston College–along with the environmental work you plan to pursue as your career–this will help your application. Good luck.</p>
