[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]^^Agree with the above. Applying ED also greatly improves chances, as others have noted. National universities in the 35-50 range seem possible, depending on gpa (unlikely below a ~3.3) combined with a high test score, excluding BC and Wake. Big Southern public schools are increasingly popular and tough to get into now-Clemson, Georgia, etc. [/quote]

Wake and BC are competitive. BC class of 2027 had 90 percent of class in top 10 percent of their class and their average SAT was quite high I think close to 1500. [/quote]

Yes, they are competitive. But for perspective, only 30% of admitted BC students submitted scores, so that is score range for a fraction of admitted students -- the ones who felt they had scores above the previous 75th. And I don't know where you are getting the 90/top10 figure but it isn't on the CDS, and if it were, it would also state the percentage of student submitting a class rank (which is usually small and often only the public school applicants).[/quote]
