<p>Community college.</p>

<p>come on haha</p>

4

<p>IB, in the United States. Anyway, you're more than qualified. You stand as good a chance as anyone else. Apply and let it go.</p>

5

<p>You're more than qualified. Your writing score is a bit low, but as a Turkish student I'm sure they'll forgive that. </p>

<p>Pros:
Amazing ECs and everything else!</p>

<p>Cons:
~New Jersey is over-represented in the Brown applicant pool, though there's not really anything you can do about that.
~Aforementioned writing score and critical reading score</p>

<p>PS, the cynical side of me is recommends that you talk about your Turkish background and culture and how that makes you different, as Brown loves diversity.</p>

<p>Thanks for the feedback...</p>
