[quote=Anonymous]Have you checked out your school's naviance or other data that shows recent acceptances to BU from DS's high school? We found this to be a decent guide. I assume you meant DS scored 1800 with the writing section? If so, I think his ACT of 27 is a better score. Look up a conversion chart from ACT to SAT to get an idea. My DS was accepted to his reach school -- that school actually combined a higher math SAT portion with a higher ACT verbal portion to get a combined super score. You both really need to research and ask questions. (For example it may be better for DS to send only his ACTs to BU). Visit the school, show interest, apply early if that helps. Make sure DS writes a great essay. My nephew loves BU, also a reach school for him. He was accepted to start in the January term -- but it was worth it for him to go to his dream school. [/quote]
