You should be as well-rounded as possible. BU wants students who push themselves academically and in extracurriculars. I got a low SAT score, but I had some awesome references and essays. Not to mention I had a lot of extracurriculars. I had taken three AP classes, but only got credit for one of them at BU. I didn't go to a pre-college program. You should have good grades in ALL your classes.
