<p>Hello. I’m an international student (from Bulgaria) who is aiming for Applied Mathematics - Economics program in Brown. Here is the info about me:</p>

<p>SAT I: 2090 (my first attempt) (CR:630;M:770;WR:690)</p>

<p>SAT II: I’m taking Math I,II and probably WH/physics in Oct. I will probably have 2x800 on the maths and i don’t know how on the science SAT</p>

<p>TOEFL: I’m taking it in Sept</p>

<p>Awards: I have about 60 awards from mathematical competitions but they are from local competitions. The most important award is a 2nd place in a international mathematical festival in Kiev.
I have written 2 mathematical projects and one of them is with a special award from Ministry of Education.</p>

<p>GPA: 3.95 (I don’t know exactly - 5.80 out of 6.00 in Bulgaria - we have 12 classes)</p>

<p>Other activities:

  • One of the projects I mentioned above is economic.
  • Part of a debate club.
  • Part of a library club.
  • Part of a mathematical club.
  • Teaching mathematics to the mathematical team of my city and some younger students
  • Play piano.
  • A participation in a project of EU.</p>

<p>Sport: Football</p>

<p>Work:

  • work as an agent who sells innovative houses
  • voluntary work in a hospital for 200h
  • voluntary work in a library</p>

<p>I need a full need-based aid. Encourage or discourage me please :slight_smile: I think to apply on ED in Brown eventhough the fact I would raise my SAT score in November.</p>

<p>The biggest part of your applications thus far that hurt you are the SAT scores and the need for financial aid. although Brown is need-blind in admissions for US students, they are not need-blind for internatinoal students.</p>

<p>Also, not knowing your SAT II scores means no one can give a really accurate prediction as well. </p>

<p>Your work experience and volunteer work are both very good and your participation in math competitions etc will definately help.</p>

<p>Just get up those SATS!!!</p>

<p>Because of my SAT I’m not sure whether or not to apply on ED. Could I give my better score if I am not accepted on ED (not rejected) for the Regular Decision?</p>
