You should surely be able to get into Northeastern, which is the least selective of the three you mention.

BU accepts 55% of its applicants, while BC accepts 38%. BU’s academics are slightly higher than BC’s. I think you have a reasonable shot at both of these, as well.

But you never know! So keep those grades up, write a great essay and get solid recommendations from your teachers. Have you visited either school, or requested literature from them online, or from a college fair? Show them you’re interested!

i like Boston yet such as you’re saying, vastly over-performed distinctly the place I grew up because of the fact it became below 2 hours from the city. So, provided that i do no longer tend to speak approximately them lots or pay attention to that lots anymore (merely while the temper strikes me). My renowned Boston songs: The launch/Cool The Engines extra advantageous than a feeling Peace of suggestions i could take Scholz over Schon myself. as far as vast journeys, I merely back Monday after a 10 day trip in Maine.

I’d say BC is a reach (but a possibility), BU and NE are potential matches. Your class rank/essays/recommendations will come into play, of course. Just be the best you you can be, and be honest with yourself and the school.

You might also want to look at Tufts.
