<p>@Kiwi You say that like it’s impossible. I know someone who got into Brown via QB with a 19-something SAT score.</p>
<p>@dancingwriter LOL true :)</p>
<p>I think it seems that way because Overachiever didn’t list his stuff in a really pretentious way, you know? Like it’s easy to list things that are just fine in a really self-important way… I don’t know. Like instead of saying Barista, putting “experienced high-quality espresso beverage preparer and server” (I’ve seen that done), and he didn’t do that</p>
<p>ugh sorry that post makes no sense</p>
<p>Regardless, I hope that means essays are weighted really heavily; they’re without a doubt the strongest part of my application</p>
<p>It was sarcastic</p>
<p>If it reassures anyone, one of the moderators over at the tumblr blog f-ckyeahbrownuniversity . tumblr . com (replace the - with a U and delete the spaces) got into Brown with a 1750 SAT score! A 1750! There’s hope for everyone, y’all, no matter your scores. :^)</p>
<p>I applied ED as well! Good luck everyone :D</p>
<p>On the official results thread, do I still post my stats if I get rejected? </p>
<p>because if the point of the thread is to help future applicants understand what kind of student Brown accepts, I don’t really see the point of clogging up the thread with failed stats</p>
<p>You could. I mean, people in the past did it. I won’t though. My senior courses are way too embarassing to let known. And if I do end up getting accepted with those embarassing senior courses, I’m going to post up my stats to reassure future not-so-very-conventional applicants that we’re okay. Haha.</p>
<p>Guys…this wait is too long. A week has never been this long. I feel like I won’t have a life if I don’t get in.</p>
<p>I already don’t have a life. My favorite character on this drama I watch got killed off last Sunday. :(</p>
<p>Now there’s nothing left to comfort me when I get rejected LOL</p>
<p>Why the long faces everyone? Just 8 days 11 hours 15 minutes to go! Chin up buttercups, everything will turn out for the best, you’ll see! :)</p>
<p>Wow… 8 days? If I get rejected now I feel like Ill get rejected everywhere else too!</p>
<p>I’m starting to regret telling my mom that Brown is an Ivy League. She’s telling EVERY SINGLE PERSON she knows that I’m going to an Ivy League school. Yeah. Going. Apparently, I’m already accepted. Hahahahahahaha. It’s going to be so embarrassing if I get rejected by all three Ivies that I applied and will apply to. Plus, some people in my town are already getting ready to call the news agencies WHEN I get my acceptance (their words, not mine). LOL. No one goes to Ivies in my city or even thinks about applying. Can someone bury me in a hole or something?</p>
<p>In other news…</p>
<p>8 DAYS, GUYS! Keep a good hold of your beating hearts. This is going to be an emotionally overwhelming, bumpy roller-coaster ride for all of us.</p>
<p>It’s all so surreal- anything can happen at this point.</p>
<p>@dancingwriter - that is why i try avoiding to tell my mom everything. I come from a Chinese family, and they care about prestige and status…You can imagine being in a family gathering and either your mom or dad spurts out ‘Oh do you know my son/daughter is applying to xxxx university? its an ivy league btw.’ and then I tell them 'no mom, there’s a difference between applying and going, applying means you don’t know whether you get accepted, and since it’s an ivy league it is highly likely that i’d get outright rejected or possibly deferred. Going is when I am actually accepted, which is highly unlikely…so please stop saying that I am actually ‘Going’ to an ivy league when I have yet to receive their decision." </p>
<p>And then my mom becomes infuriated as I have ‘humiliated’ her in front of the family (and then those family tradition and culture plays a role) </p>
<p>Anyways, good luck guys! :)</p>
<p>Was anyone’s counselor requested for your first quarter report?</p>
<p>Applied Brown ED. I’m just so unlucky in the sense that the day the decision comes, I will be preparing for my most difficult mid-term exam (which’ll be the next day). Whether it’ll be good news or bad, I’m sure that I won’t be able to study at all :/</p>
<p>@abelgkb: I voluntarily sent mine to them, because I did really poorly last quarter of junior year but I was really proud of my grades and course load first quarter of senior.</p>
