Hi! Brown has been my dream school since I was three, but I am really really nervous about my chances of actually being accepted. Please let me know what you think:
Bio:
I am a legacy at Brown (my mom went there, but she’s not involved, and we don’t give money).
I am not first generation, I am white, and I am female.
I am applying ED (does that help?)
I go to a really competitive public high school (65 kids from the class of 2016 applied to Brown, and only 7 were accepted).
I have a 4.8 weighted GPA from junior year. But for first term senior year I have a 4.96 weighted GPA.
I take 6 honors/AP courses (honors are weighted the same as AP at my school). I do AP Spanish, AP Physics Mechancis, AP Statistics, and AP BC Calculus, and I do an Honors Civil Rights course for history and an Honors Women in Lit course for English.
Testing:
I earned a 1520 composite on the new SAT (790 Math and 730 English). I only received a 19 on the essay (I really wanted to retake to improve my essay score, but I never had time, and I think that will hold me back).
I earned a 790 on the US history Subject Test and an 800 on the Math II SAT Subject Test.
Extracurriculars:
I am an editor on my school’s national award winning newspaper, I am president and founder of video game design club, I tutor students in the math center at my school, I tutor young girls in mathematics to help bridge the gender gap in STEM, I work with kids with disabilities at a community center, and I am a paid graphic design intern for the college division of a national company.
Summer extracurriculars:
I had two internships this past summer. The first was a neurological clinical research internship at a really prestigious hospital (I think it’s ranked number 1 or 2 in the world). This internship was 42.5 hours a week and paid. I indicated on my application that a paper I wrote for this internship will be submitted for publication. My second internship was an epidemiological internship at the school of public health at a nearby decent University. This internship was also a research one, it was unpaid, and it was 10 hours a week.
Last summer, I also had two internships. I had an internship at the same national company for which I am now a paid intern for, and I had an internship at a video game design company that was planning a conference.
Other information:
My supplement essays are good, but my common app is only okay. One of recommendations will be really good, and the other two will be decent (I think they know that I am a good student, but they don’t really know me that well).
So what are my chances??? Please be brutally honest
