BC is not urban. [/quote]

She said big OR urban. And BC is pretty urban anyway, it's not like it's in a rural location. However it's pretty competitive from an admissions standpoint and a 1340 SAT is at the 25th percentile.[/quote]

You are not familiar and have not visited BC?  It is on the large side, but urban it is not.[/quote]

It is about 8 miles from Boston.  That’s pretty urban.  [/quote]
For sake of accuracy, edit that to 8 miles from [i]downtown[/i] Boston.  The campus itself is partly in Boston, with the city line cutting through the middle of campus.  The campus is suburban.  The lifestyle (especially for juniors living off campus) tends toward urban.

That said, indeed as noted above, the middle 50 percentiles for students enrolled in the class of 2022 was 1340-1480.  The average score for students [i]admitted[/i] to the class of 2023 was 1461, with a 27% acceptance rate and most in the top 10% of their class.  Would be a reach for a 1340, but ok to add to the list if it turned out to be desirable.[/quote]
