<p>You seem like a very solid, competitive Brown applicant. While your SAT score is slightly low for Brown, I know the school takes a very holistic approach to admissions. Honestly, for really competitive universities, once your application is at a “competitive” level, then a lot of it is luck. For you, acceptance will largely depend on Brown’s applicant pool for this year.</p>

<p>is there anything else i can do to strengthen the application?</p>

<p>@workhorse92: I’d say you have a good chance at Brown, you have very good ECs and it would help tremendously if you wrote about one of them in your essays. You have a good class rank/GPA, but a relatively poor SAT score. If you make up for it with an awesome essay, you will be very competitive in the application pool!</p>

<p>Overall, I would say you are a slight reach.</p>

<p>Chance me back please? : )</p>
