Can you help me out, guys?

Colleges and Universities A-Z Brown University
1

<p>I am rising junior in a decent private school in Conneticut which has about 100 students in a class, and I am aiming for Brown University.</p>

<p>In my freshman year, I went to a renowned public school in New Jersery, and got a 3.8 weighted, and 3.6 unweighted (2 Honors courses).</p>

<p>However, as tranferring to the private school in my sophmore year (3 Honors courses), my GPA became 3.5 weighted, and 3.2 unweighted so far.</p>

<p>I am planning to take 3 APs and 2 Honors courses, starting next month.</p>

<p>My extracurricular Activities:
math team 2 years
stock market club 2 years
diversity club 2 years
art club 1 year
school newspaper 2 years
Model UN 1 year
It looks like I am going to be an editor and take leadership positions in more than three clubs above.</p>

<p>Athletics:
X-C 1 year freshman team and 1 year varsity team (It seems like I am going to be the captain in junior and senior year.)
riflery 1 year (our team took 5th in the state, and I might have a chance to become a captain in my senior year.)
JV baseball 1 year (I was injured in my freshman year)</p>

<p>Community Service:
I worked with handicappers for 150 hours.</p>

<p>I am practicing SAT, and I have a strong feeling that I will get at least 2200.</p>

<p>What should I do? Is there anyway I can get into Brown? Should my parents make donations? Do I have to cure AIDS? Please give me your comments. Thanks.</p>

<p>your parents should give 100 million dollars in donation.
it's good that you're gonna have chances to become captain/pres in so many clubs and activities. just make sure that you do something to prove your passion in at least one of them and you'll be a contender.</p>

<p>It's hard to say much about your chances, since you're just a rising junior and have only had two years worth of grades and activities for us to look at, but I'd say the main thing would be to work on improving your GPA and making you're you're in the top 20% or so of your class by the end of next year, if you aren't already.</p>

<p>Other than that, you look good so far. Good luck!</p>

<p>What's your class rank? That's a lot of times more important than gpa in determining your performace -- it gives your gpa a reference point.</p>

<p>I think I am in top 20%. Thanks guys for giving me a comment. Also, I am an international student from Korea.</p>
