Chance me?

<p>White female from Connecticut, rising senior
I;m hoping to do a concentration in Chemistry
If I apply, it’ll be ED</p>

<p>GPA- 4.22 W (school does not do UW)
SAT- 2180: 680 CR, 740 M, 760 W (retaking)
SAT Subject- 730 Chem, 760 Math 2
ACT- 32</p>

<p>Curriculum:
APs
Junior: French (4, non-native), Chemistry (4), Lang & Comp (5)
Senior: Calc BC, Psych, Physics 1, Lit</p>

<p>I have taken all the hardest courses offered except for taking honors US History instead of APUSH
All classes besides APs were/will be honors
Only student in my grade to finish the French curriculum early</p>

<p>Extracurricular:
Dance: 7 years, 3-4 days a week
Volunteering: Working on a volunteer project called Catwalk For a Cure for 2 years that raises money for women who need care for breast cancer
Red Cross Club: volunteering for school-run blood drive, 3 years
Key Club: 50 hours community service per year for all four years
School newspaper: 2 years, writer and spread editor
I work two jobs, one at a hardware store and one at a clothing store totaling about 20+ hours a week of working</p>

<p>Awards/Honors:
Science Honor Society: President (includes 4 hours of tutoring/year)
French HS: expected to be President, received award for academic achievement
Math HS: 8 hours tutoring/year
English HS
National Honor Society: 20-hour service project/year
Wellesley College Book Award for academic achievement/leadership</p>

<p>Recommendations:
One from chemistry/AP Chem teacher, should be very strong
One from French teacher, should be decent, not incredible
One possibly from school dean of pupil services, should be good because he has a high position</p>

<p>I know I’m not the strongest applicant, but applying ED, would I have any shot? Thanks for any insight!</p>

<p>Also my rank is going to be in the top 10 of 396, if that helps!</p>

<p>GPA is top notch (basing that on rank since WGPA is sort of ■■■■■■■■), SAT is ok. So it really will come down to your essay and who you present yourself as. Brown is all about diversity, so try to be different!</p>

<p>Sat is good, as is GPA. It’s great that you have two jobs, Brown will love that. You have a great shot. Go for the ED! Good luck!</p>
