<p>Essay and recs:
all my recs are really good esspecially my guidance counselors.
my essay i have been told is also really good.</p>
<p>*if it makes a difference i have contacted the chairman of the physics dept. at Brown. I am going up to met him sometime in the next 2 weeks.</p>
<p>well i all ready sent my app in, and i know its really up to chance but i was just wondering if anyone here could give me an idea of my chances.</p>
<p>I think you have a somewhat better chance than the overall 27% ED admit rate because of your research and the Siemens award. You sound like an excellent candidate - but be sure to hedge your bets and have your RD apps ready to roll.</p>
<p>does being from outside of rhode island help or hurt your chances of getting into brown?? i read that brown is 95% in state and found this hard to believe, maybe it is actually 95% out of state?</p>
<p>I have the facts right here from 2004.
96% were from out of state
85% live on campus</p>
<p>Your research is good, if it is published. Then it can be efficently used in your application If I had to give a percentage, I'd say you have 55% chance of getting accepted with ED, 25-30% otherwise. </p>
<p>Brown is big on Alumnai. They have a more than 200% chance over a normal applicant with the same qualifications.</p>
