<p>i think you have a pretty good shot; just remember, everyone on this website is ABOVE AVERAGE… this is not an accurate sample of the applicant pool to BC or any other school.</p>
<p>Dear ChrisM1225 : Your 29 ACT score is below the early admission standards and towards the lower end of the regular application pool. The 1990 three-way SAT score is similar to the ACT score, perhaps stronger given the 720 in the CR section.</p>
<p>Your surviving cancer must have been quite a personal challenge and must have shaped your life and your essays in some very interesting ways. Perhaps this has shaped your passion/scores in Biology which if your intended major, might interest the BC application readers.</p>
<p>Thanks for all the replies. That is exactly what I am hoping to improve my chances at BC Scott. My planned major is Biology and hoping to go pre-med which was significantly influenced by my cancer experience.</p>
