Background: I’m an asian international student (but I live in boston lmao) I’m from a pretty high-income bracket. Accepted into Questrom skl of business (marketing)
My GPA and test scores were the weakest in my opinion ahah but
GPA: 3.47 (screwed up my first 2 yrs of highschool SO BADLY- freshman&sophomore year gpa 3.2 but junior-senior year gpa was a 3.7-3.8)
ACT: 31
However I believe my essay was very strong though, and because I live in the area, I knew BU people and was able to go in very often thus learning about the school’s secret traditions, very specific programs, BU-specific vocab, etc which I was able to put into my essay.
I also founded and own 2 NPOs: 1 being a sports drink company which help funds athletic programs in low-income areas and another being I turn baby clothes into dresses and ship them to girls in need.
My ECs:
Varsity volleyball- 7,8,9,10,11,12 grade (yeah since the 7th grade lmao)
I work a part time job
Model UN team
Female rights club team head
varsity basketball manager 10,11,12
I take part in national public speaking exams lmaooo- won 2 national distinctions in the UK
cant think of any more off the top of my head but good luck to all of you! I didnt think I was gonna get in tbh but was accepted to Questrom
