Mass was the first state that I was a BGO in (over 25 yrs ago) and I was in Western Mass. That area was not especially competitive, schools were OK but average SAT scores were not much above national average and it did not take terrific scores to get a nomination. Later when I lived in NH, my district was quite mixed with a couple of great schools that put out highly qualified applicants and the rest were so-so.
