<p>wow thanks for all the helpful links riverrunner, and yes I am going to start to contact the coaches as of today. Also my track team is going to the brown university invitational so would it be worth it if I just visited the coach while I was there?</p>
<p>btw any more chances on the schools I am looking at?</p>
<p>ty</p>
<p>YES ask to visit the Brown coach. The coaches will likely be VERY busy before the meet, so hopefully you can stay a little after it. Email the coach ASAP and let him/her know that you're coming, and share your prs, gpa and SAT/ACT scores if you have them. Stay an extra day if you can, to do a tour and hear an admissions speaker. Brown has excellent on campus housing for visiting families (check their website). It is on the top floor of a residence hall and is a great and inexpensive way to really get a feel for the campus and students.</p>
<p>Your chances go WAYYYYYY up if you are a recruited athlete. What are your times?</p>
<p>my 200 is around a 27-26 (this is after a summer of not running) so I expect it to be around a 22-24 by the end of this spring. my 800 is around a 1:57ish. I also run the 400 but I forget my time for that. My times will get a lot better its just this summer I was not able to run due to the fact I was working 10+ hour shifts to help my family out.</p>
<p>btw the brown meet we are going to is a 2 day meet</p>

<p>when I contact coaches should I contact the head coach or my sections (sprinting) coach</p>
<p>Hi smartafgkid,
I'm starting to think we should have this conversation over on the Brown forum before we get kicked off of the Crimson page! You might do well to post any questions you have about running track at Brown on that site. I'd email Craig Lake, the head coach. She will pass your email along to the sprint coach. When we visited, there were three coaches available to tour and talk.</p>
<p>Here are 2007 Outdoor Track Heptagonal (Ivy League Championships) results for the 800m and 400m. (no men's 200m was run at this meet.)</p>
<p>See where you finish!</p>

<p>it's easier to get into harvard with plain scores and slightly weak ECs then, say, MIT. you're pretty compatible with ~15 harvard, yale, princeton people last year in my school in terms of ECs, but ur SATs are alittle low... but if ur scohol is anything like mine Cornell and below ull definitely get into (except MIT is a bit of a reach)</p>
<p>btw the harvard coaches are interrested, and bump</p>
