<p>HELLO!! Future Brown ED’er here!!! Im so excited - my sister attends and it is my absolute dream school !!!</p>
<p>yay we have more people
as some of you know i live near brown, and i was at the starbucks on thayer yesterday (right on brown’s campus if you’re not familiar)
all of the summer@brown kids were there. so cute.</p>
<p>I had a shake at that Starbucks :)</p>
<p>Sooooo has anyone else started work on the Common App essay?</p>
<p>Six months ago, I did. Haha.</p>
<p>I have two essays written, but not specifically for the Common App. One probably fits though.
Also, I visited Carleton and Macalester. I really liked Carleton, but didn’t get the right vibe from Macalester. It’s off my list now.</p>
<p>How long was your visit? I stayed there for four days. I didn’t like how strong the drinking culture was at Carleton. Seems that’s all people did on weekends.</p>
<p>Oh man, Carleton’s one of my safe-ish schools :/</p>
<p>I visited for a day and didn’t get that feeling, though I had at another school (Beloit). Also, I don’t think Carleton can really be a safety school, as it is pretty selective.</p>
<p>Ah well, a match then…</p>
<p>We slipped back by a page!</p>
<p>Yeah we did.
I’m trying to think of something to say here.
…Brown still totally rocks?</p>
<p>I get it in 'til the sun rise EH going 90 in a 65 EH!!!</p>
<p>About 4 months to go till we submit ED apps? :p</p>
<p>I’m visiting Brown in August, and I can’t wait…</p>
<p>i was wondering if any of you knew about how brown evaluates the ACT. i know they take the best score from each category but how do they do the same in figuring your writing? i got a higher score on my english the second time but my essay was better the first time… can they merge these to determine a different writing score (They averaged out to be the same)</p>
<p>You should email them and ask</p>
<p>See you later, fellow Brown EDers! Off to TASP!</p>
<p>Does Brown weigh Writing on SAT the same as the other sections? Also, I wonder how important the Writing ACT score is, because that’s definitely my worst section there. Better on the SAT though. :B</p>
<p>Lucky bug, Obstinate. Good luck! And do send me a Facebook message about the awesome music scene down in Austin!</p>
