<p>Look at what your school gives you in terms of opportunities. My school can barely afford compettions. My school is rated so ****ly lol Colleges better take into context of the schools if they’re going to compare different applicants b/c that’s just not fair</p>

3

<p>I thought that was what standardized tests were for :/</p>

4

<p>Yea but colleges still take into context of school. So these activities should great in the context of your school. We can’t tell you how well these accomplishments are. They look great though. You’ve got a great chance. Im just ranting b/c i mite be a lil jealous lol</p>

5

<p>lol Thanks for your opinion. And don’t be jealous because if anyone else from my school applies then they will see that my ECs are actually average in the context of my school (its EXTREMELY competitive and a tiny bit scary!).</p>

6

<p>Submit buttons scare me</p>

7

<p>Submit buttons are definitely horrifying, lol. But go ahead and click that scary yellow button, because I’d say you have an EXCELLENT chance at admission to Brown ED. Escpecially as you’ve done so well at such a highly ranked school.</p>

<p>Chance me, please: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1021592-freaking-out-just-applied-ea-uchicago-could-someone-please-gauge-my-chances.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1021592-freaking-out-just-applied-ea-uchicago-could-someone-please-gauge-my-chances.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

15

<p>Thanks for the input. Chanced you back</p>

16

<p>You are in wherever you choose! Great accomplishments! Just be sure to show the admissions committee what you want to achieve from an education at their school!</p>

17

<p>great resume! btw the deadline for early decision/action is nov. 1 does that mean one can send their app anytime before 12:00am nov 2?</p>

18

<p>i think it’s any time before 11:59 Nov. 1
Thanks for the chances although they are probably way too generous lol</p>

19

<p>If it says on the Brown admissions website that the CommonApp must be submitted in order for an applicant file to be created, does that mean that it must be the first component of the application submitted (I sent my transcripts about a month ago)?</p>
