Dropping by from the Cornell thread but GOODLUCK to all OF YOU!!! OUR RESULTS COME OUT AT THE SAME TIME SO BEST OF LUCK AND U GUYS ALL DESERVE THIS
I guess since Brown has so many supplements to write, the more research on Brown I have done, the more love towards Brown I have.

Geez, I’m late to the party! I think my Common App essay was good and I submitted a portfolio of my artwork (acrylic portraits, pen figures, and charcoal exercises) so that’s something. I also suspect my recommendations were good since I have a great relationship with the teachers I chose!
My SAT is 2230/1450 so that’s decent but my gpa in 9/10 was lacking compared to 11/12 but my school’s early college curriculum means that 11/12 are… valued more? Sort of? It’s one of those weird subjective things.
I hope my curriculum stands out to them, but I also have others students from my school who applied ED so…
¯_(ツ)_/¯
Oh, and I got the humanities email too! I applied as a Literary Arts/English concentrator.
@wifigirl i liked the one voiced by john krasinski
I think the best parts of my application probably had to do with extracurriculars (unfortunately), specifically with extensive work in the public health/social justice sector in terms of youth rights to healthcare in my state as well as being a successful grant applicant/primary author for a couple different organizations.
I’m expecting a deferral (hopefully not a rejection) but BEST OF LUCK to all of us! Brown has such an amazing atmosphere and has been my top choice since I first visited. I was lucky to have a great interview but definitely trying not to get my hopes up too much. It is truly wonderful that we have all had the tenacity to apply ED to such an amazing university. With less than 2 days remaining, I think we all deserve a little peace of mind
@wifigirl Haha that’s so cool that you want to study that. Becoming an OBGYN was one of my childhood dreams, actually. Everyone thinks it’s really weird :/, but I love obstetrics and gynecology.
yes @rlathd2 is right we are all amazing and we must not fret
in times of trouble this video always raises my spirits https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q6EoRBvdVPQ
@pontmercy HOW DID YOU FIND THIS VIDEO OF ME ON THE INTERNET
Seriously though Yee is me
@wifigirl OMG… that video makes me love Brown even more. I was watching rejection letter reactions these days, just not to give me high hope that I can be admitted.
Before decisions come out on Thursday, go to the Common App website and download your application. Just read through it, and don’t lose sight of all the hard work—clichés aside—that you poured into your app.
I did that today, and it gave me a wave of relief. I’m proud of my application, and I know that I will be happy no matter where I end up.
@QueenOfCats LMAO YES YEE IS LOVE YEE IS LIFE!!
if you like that you’ll love the almighty loaf https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6ITD1tqXDII
@xda Thanks for your advice!! I will do that half an hour before decision comes out. Maybe it will help me feel better after the decision is released.
@pontmercy YOU ARE MY NEW FAVORITE PERSON EVER
That loaf is so me and so meta
Tbh I actually worked on a farm this summer where we grew wheat…this speaks to me in a deep and meaningful way
@xda that is wonderful advice. it puts everything back into perspective.
@QueenOfCats I HAVE AN ENDLESS SUPPLY OF THESE
@rlathd2 i’m banking on my ECs as well do not worry nor underestimate their power! you sound very accomplished and passionate i’m sure you will end up somewhere great (hopefully brown though)
@tomatoyay I think a lot of people think OBGYN is an easy field designated towards women doctors. But theres so much more to it. it’s sooo fascinating.
@Han456 Those make me sad af because ik it will be me…
@pontmercy Can you tell me what’s happening in the video? I’m sorry that I don’t understand, since I’m not from the U.S… I guess that is one of the cartoons you watch in childhood, right?
@Han456 Oh no it’s not a childhood video! It’s just nonsensical and silly. It’s not really supposed to make sense, don’t worry!
@pontmercy WE HAVE THE SAME SENSE OF HUMOR GAHHHHH :)>-
These videos have made my day bright and shiny like a baby’s butt
