<p>pshhhhh stressed, i would kill for your stats! But seriously, don’t count yourself out just cause of UofC and MIT, i honestly don’t think the really big school rejectiond say too much about your chances at the other schools when you have stats and fun ECs like you do :)</p>
<p>Astronomical, considering, 90% of you guys will be rejected, I’m sure your not the only one.</p>
<p>Me considering I don’t apply till next year But my chances next year wont be much better with my 2080 SAT, even with my top 2% rank at a school that’s sending like 20+ kids to Ivies this year…</p>
<p>34 ACT. 3.74 GPA Weighted :(. Great ECs. Rejected/Waitlisted EVERYWHERE SO FAR</p>
<p>Yeah my chances seem pretty slim. </p>
<p>33 ACT, 4.1 weighted GPA, URM</p>
<p>I got waitlisted @ Pomona & Berkeley so I’m expecting a rejection letter tomorrow :(</p>
<p>^ SAME HERE!! I have a similar GPA (3.71) HOPING FOR BROWN!</p>
<p>basically same here in terms of GPA and SAT, but major hook is my research stuff in unusual subject (research is a hook right?), plus I got waitlisted at JHU, UWash, and CMU. All of my other schools accepted me and/or gave me non need merit scholarships (up to $10000 *4 years, would mostly cover r&b unless I am mistaken). Hopefully this means they liked me and ergo Brown might to?</p>
<p>I’m trying to convince myself that I will be rejected, but I keep feeling that glimmer of hope. Every time this happens, though, I give myself a swift figurative slap in the brains and the feeling quickly passes. I’ve become an expert at smothering my optimism!</p>
<p>I have a couple hooks, I am URM and from Nevada, where probably ~100 applied from the whole state. But other than these entirely situational advantages I am such a boring applicant. Although I did write an essay that makes fun of Nevada, which was pretty funny.</p>
<p>my interviewer said that about 50 applied from my region (don’t know if that means state or by county). but you could count the number of acceptances per year on one hand</p>
<p>-1920 SAT. 28 ACT. 3.8 GPA
- URM
- Submitted a killer Art Portfolio</p>

<p>@ava1992 YOU HAVE JUST DESCRIBED WORD FOR WORD MY DAILY TORTURE PROCESS. First I begin to dream. Then I slap my brain and tell myself it will never happen, I am not good enough, point out 039485034 reasons I won’t get in, and then I begin to dream again. It’s such a tiring process, crushing your own hopes so a slim letter won’t.</p>
<p>woot woot 2110 SAT, 3.33 uw, 4.16 w.
already got into wesleyan, so im happy. i’m just hoping i get waitlisted at brown, but that chance seems slim as well as getting in…</p>
<p>Just finished “binge” praying for 3 hours >_> And now the suns out and I haven’t slept.</p>
<p>I definitely did the binge prayer thing. >_> I even acknowledged that 30,000+ other people were probably binge praying somewhere out there in my prayer, too.</p>
<p>I slept pretty well. Went to bed early; woke up on time (none of this EVER happens). I woke up all calm. I’m hoping it’s a good sign.</p>
<p>I hope it is a good sign! Best of luck to you! </p>
<p>I should have gone to bed, or started praying earlier, because it’s 7am now and I’m not done with this scholarship I was suppose to have done, and now I’m deathly tired! >_<</p>
<p>31 ACT 2010 SAT 3.3UW 3.67W
EC - 4 years of Cross Country and Track
URM - Hispanic</p>
<p>This is really doubtful for me seeing that I was waitlisted at Pomona and rejected at Claremont McKenna (Where?). </p>
<p>However, I was accepted at the University of Chicago :o</p>
<p>34 ACT, 1970 SAT, and No APs.</p>
<p>Very few NOTABLE extra curriculars to speak of. Several clubs, and two years of sports.</p>
<p>Not much else.</p>
<p>1920 SAT, top 25% of class, ECs include volunteer work, community service, basketball and track, glowing recommendations from teachers and the counselor, (hopefully) original essays.</p>
<p>I’ve been binge praying this whole week.</p>
<p>I’m a Brown hopeful. I’ve been praying for the past two weeks for at least a spot on the waiting list. Here are my stats:
SAT: 2230, GPA: 3.8 UW, 4.4W; ECs include Model UN, Mock Trial, over 300 hours of community service, 3 years of tennis, performed in 4 school productions; got recommendations from my AP history and English teachers and college counselor, which I hope were good. </p>
<p>GOOD LUCK TO EVERYONE! 5pm, well 2pm pacific time, is drawing closer!!</p>
<p>thatssorandom, hate to breka it to you, but you don’t belong here. </p>
<p>I have good enough grades and good EC’s. however, my essays were HORRID and my SAT is a 2020. my dad and uncle went to Brown though. </p>
<p>my dad is counting down the hours until I am rejected. he has a weird sense of humor. </p>
<p>best of luck everyone! brown is an ah-maz-ing place. :)</p>
