<p>Your ECs are a little weak. Sure, you have done a lot but there doesn’t seem to be anything outstanding. Brown will be a low reach.</p>

<p>I’d say Brown was a high reach unless you’re getting recruited. It’s got a <10% acceptance rate, and many of the people applying there have similar stats. Wait until you’ve taken the real SAT to get chanced.</p>

<p>& and you’d need to post what classes you’re taking to get accurate responses. A school like Brown wants applicants that took the most challenging courses offered.</p>

<p>You will need leadership roles in both your ECs and your community service work to be a viable candidate. You should seek leadership roles in organizations where you can show actual results; being president of some school club that you founded that accomplished nothing is pretty much worthless. Likewise, logging in lots of hours in volunteering is not impressive – being able to describe what you accomplished, in your essays and interview, is important.</p>
