Chance Me @ Brown

<p>Send in a tape!! My friend got into Brown with worse stats…your ACT may be a little bit lower but I think all your high extracurriculars will push you over the edge. Good luck!</p>

<p>You have a great shot. My friend got in with worse stats…your ACT might be a little bit lower then they want but your GPA is superior and you have great extra curriculars. Good luck!</p>

<p>Great resume and solid act but your gpa seems a bit low even though brown is one of the easier ivies to get accepted into. Thanks for chancing me and I think you have an above average chance</p>

<p>I have a friend who ED’ed Brown this year. When she visited, they made a point of emphasizing how they’re putting more emphasis on GPA and test scores. Obviously, Brown cares a lot about your ECs - but really focus on upping your ACT score to a 33-35.</p>

<p>Finish junior year strong - really push for any more points of your GPA.</p>

<p>I’d say you’re in Low Reach/High Match area. Good luck :)</p>

<p>Thanks everyone!
JLR - thanks for that. Yeah I am really working on the ACT, taking it again next month and studying for it a loot. and yeah I am trying to do my very best this year.</p>

<p>Anyone else??</p>

<p>Get a 34 on the ACT and seal the deal.</p>

<p>Honestly, I think you have a fair shot. GPA is good, ACT seems good enough and EC’s look good as well. Good luck!</p>

<p>Nice Job
Especially like the music and the problem solving thing</p>

<p>Just keep up the good work in your senior year and you’ll have a great chance</p>

<p>Thanks everyone for the feedback again!</p>

<p>I’d say those sounds like pretty good stats! I also think the fact that you are a from a public school helps differentiate you from the herd of east coast private school people who apply to the Ivies and other top schools. IB will also be a major plus, and I know that Brown often looks for a whole package deal (as has been the case with the two people from my school who got in last year and this year), so one weak area can be more than compensated by a strong hook or personality.</p>

<p>@cmorris2325 - </p>

<p>Thanks, and yea hopefully that will help…
Im hoping my “hook” will compensate for my average gpa haha.</p>

<p>Thanks so much for chancing</p>

<p>Great credentials… I have a cousin who just graduated from Brown and had high school credentials like yours. Also, I think you’ll thrive at Brown because the people there seem very musically oriented. I love the fact that your extracurriculars focus on what you want to do in college! That is really important. Hope this helps!</p>

<p>And please chance me too :)</p>

<p>Chance me at Ohio State
Please/Thanks!</p>

<p>I think you’ll really stand out and I think you’ve got a fair chance. Best of luck to you!</p>

<p>I hate doing Ivy chances because its basically a crapshoot for everyone. Luckily you show commitment to a few ECs, so your list is substantial. Everything looks pretty good! I’ve seen better applicants and I’ve seen A LOT of worse applicants, so you have a decent chance!</p>

<p>I think the best part about your resume is your very focused ECs, with grades that are very above average as well. From what I understand the key into getting into top notch schools like Brown is taking it beyond the classroom, and I think you’ve done that. I think you’ve got a good chance at acceptance, and would be one of their more promising applicants.</p>

<p>You definitely have a really good chance for Brown. Nice Ecs concentrated on one thing that you really like, the audition tape should certainly help too, as all the Ivy’s love kids who can do multiple things during their time on campus. I would say you are 60%-75% in!</p>

<p>Not an expert on Brown but I think you are in decent shape. ACT and GPA are strong and you seem to have ECs. I’d say match.</p>
