Chance me for Brown

Hi guys,

It would be really helpful if you guys could chance me for Brown and give some tips to improve my chances! I really fell in love with the school and everything it has to offer (there are others that I like too though). I plan to apply either undecided or with a concentration in Creative Writing/English and for ED

-SAT II: haven’t taken but get 700-750 on practice tests
-I take the hardest offered course load

Subjective:

-ECs:

that’s about everything. Thanks for taking your time to respond and be as honest as possible. Thanks!

Ur stats are solid, try to improve ACT to 34+, ur ECs are Unique, emphasize the unique ones, and write good essays

Reeally interesting ecs!! As @HPYMSkid kid said, just raise that ACT and you will be golden!

@meepmoop i took it again recently and I’m pretty sure i got 33+. Also, this would put me at the 75th percentile for Brown. I’m already in the middle 50. Thanks for the chance back!

There’s not really much more to say! Meepmoop and HPYMS pretty much covered it!
best of luck :slight_smile:

First of all how do you have TIME for all of that!!! Second of all, yeah get your ACT up to like a 34 and write good essays and such and I don’t see why they wouldn’t take you…but then again it is Brown so have safeties and matches just in case
