Chances for 2027 Bachelor of Science application

Hi everyone, I was wondering whether I have the potential to be accepted in this prestigious university considering my grades and lack of extracurricular activities.

I've just finished grade 11 at my IB school and on my final mocks I've scored 37, lacking a few percents on 2 subjects to get 39. I expect my predicted grades to be at least 38-39ish and I think they are the ones that are going to be assessed by the university. Currently I have 6 in Math but I believe I can push it towards a 7 at the beginning of DP2. For my Sciences I take Physics and Comp Sci both SL as my school didn't offer my another choice and I got 7s on both but in the admission requirements it is stated that I need to have at least 1 science at advanced level(not sure if it refers to HL in IB or not).

For my extracurriculars I don't have much and I believe that's my weakest spot right now. I've won a 2025 Purple Comet Olympiad, even though it is not rated. Furthermore I'm going to the gym and looking over multiple guys's progress, even though it is not official coaching. I've also written a website helping people to organize their plans, goals and etc. into a nice visual diagram of their choice and keep track of it. I also have a big amount of my activities in CAS which is IB's equivalent for extra activity but I'm not sure if it can go into the university application. I know that it is far from enough to have a shot at this university and I want to know that if it is realistic to do more activities this summer in order to strengthen my CV and increase my chances.

Considering all of the information above do you think I have a shot at this university or is it better to drop it?

Bocconi MAI/BEMACS application with IB results

Hi guys, I got my final grades for the first year of DP(not predicted) and now I'm wondering whether I should apply to Bocconi for MAI/BEMACS in the closest session. I'm not sure how to do the conversion to Italian GPA but as of right now I have 38/42 points and my expectation for SAT is around 1500. I would appreciate if you estimate whether these results could carry any potential when applying and also if you have some information about these programs in particular I would appreciate it a lot.
