<p>How come so few APs so far???.</p>

<p>My son is entering the 12th grade, and he has already taken 8 AP classes.</p>

<p>I would try and actually write the paper you mentioned asap, so it can somehow be included/mentioned in your applications/essays, etc.</p>

3

<p>how did you get a 735 in writing…</p>

4

<p>lol sry idk where i got that i meant 730</p>

5

<p>and the reason i didnt take more ap’s is that my school only offers 4 to non seniors: ap world, ap chem, ap us, and ap bio</p>

6

<p>I was going through the supplement and dont actually see any information requested by Brown about who attended from your family. The can see if your parents attended using the commonapp which kind of would imply only immediate family (they can also see sibling information from commonapp).</p>

<p>Mention on your application that your username is josephstalin and you should be what we at Brown call an “automatic”</p>

<p>BTW … it matters tremendously that your grandfather is a Brown alum … see

<p>And after yer accepted you’ll need to adopt a Brown tradition and call yourself * josephstalin '16*</p>
