You have a strong profile. ECs are a little limited, but they seem to have depth. Regarding Brown’s ACT policy, they only consider highest sub sections if multiple tests are submitted, so they’ll look at the four subsections you listed. For example, if you submit two tests with one English section 30 and the other 34, Brown would only consider the 34. Regarding your scores, as the English and math sections are the most heavily weighed, it would help if your math got better in the October test. Good luck from one Brown ED applicant to another!
You seem to have a pretty good chance with your classes and scores. The only thing that makes a huge difference is your major because if you are going for theater, I’m not sure if you have to do an audition-which can hugely sway the application process. The summer @ brown is a great EC- especially now that Brown knows you a little bit better than the other candidates-it makes you stand out. Good Luck! Please chance be back!
