<p>So I visited campus today and fell IN LOVE with basically everything about Brown. I know It'd be a very high reach but I just wanted to hear some opinions from others about my chances.</p>
<p>I'm a junior from MA and attend a highly-ranked public high school.
Class Rigor: All honors classes freshmen year (highest levels offered)
Sophomore: AP Euro AP Biology and the rest honors (highest level offered)
Junior: AP Chem, APUSH, AP Language and Comp and the rest honors (again, highest offered)
Senior year I'll be taking 4-5 AP's, I haven't decided what yet!</p>
<p>Scores: 5 on AP Bio and 4 on AP Euro. 710 on Bio SAT subject test </p>
<p>GPA: weighted: 4.2 UW: 3.7 < not 100% sure. My high school doesn't calculate them so I did myself. Hopefully this will go up!</p>
<p>ACT: 30 (i know this is rather low for here, but I plan on retaking and hopefully raising!)</p>
<p>EC's</p>
<p>Violin: School Orchestra since 5th Grade. I've been first chair throughout.
NEC youth orchestra: I've done this the past 3 years, very very competitive orchestra.
private lessons for the past 8 years.
I plan on sending an arts supplement for violin!</p>
<p>Piano: Kindergarten- present.</p>
<p>Guitar: I've played for over 5 years but I don't take lessons, I teach myself.</p>
<p>Tennis: School tennis team JV in 9th and 10th grade, Varsity in 11th grade.</p>
<p>Field Hockey: Freshmen and Sophomore year on JV</p>
<p>Clubs: I've peer tutored since middle school. Microfinance Club, SADD, Peer Leaders, UNITE Leadership, Math club, NHS</p>
<p>Leadership: I'm on student council, Secretary of Microfinance and NHS president. UNITE is a leadership club we had to apply to be a part of. Attended (selected to attend) several leadership conferences.</p>
<p>Volunteering: I volunteer at a hospital once a week for 4 hours. Over 200 hours thus far. I love it and want to pursue medicine!</p>
<p>Work: I work at a tutoring center year round (except for the spring during tennis) and scoop ice cream over the summer! I teach tennis to little kids during the summer too and babysit!</p>
<p>As for awards, I've won the music department award every year of high school as well as various awards at leadership conferences.</p>
<p>I know it's kinda a long shot for me, but I really want to focus on writing stellar essays to improve my chances! Thanks in advance for responses :)</p>
<p>Oh yeah, I plan on concentrating in Biology and applying ED!</p>
