<p>DD got into Brown ly RD with similar stats, i.e., high lit/verbal, (790,770) lower math (670 SAT, 680 SAT 1C), full IB diploma</p>

<p>I think your chances are good...(although those IB exam scores aren't spectacular...if you're a DP candidate, hopefully your predicted is high)and, btw, dd loves Brown :-)</p>
