<p>Hi anacoluthon123, </p>
<p>Congrats. You’re getting a head start on college admissions (ahead of alot of people in your graduating class), and that’s a good thing to have: to get started on things ASAP. I like that.</p>
<p>Now on to academics. You have performed immensely well in school, as you have an A average while managing a very tough course load, 10 APs and 1 college course. That is very impressive. Your test scores are also mighty impressive, because very few people have that high 2300s, and your SAT Subjects are great. By the way, please please please don’t retake that Spanish Subject. A 770 is a very good score, and you’re not expected to be perfect … no one is! (At least you’re human… I hope) </p>
<p>Your ECs are also impressive. You take the initiative to design web pages for clubs (Dreamweaver is a very awesome tool to have, I must admit) and you demonstrate leadership in quite a few aspects of your activities. You also sound very ambitious, as you seem very interested in submitting to Siemens and Intel STS, which btw are one of the most prestigious HS competitions in this country. If you do get an award (semi), it will raise eyebrows, but it will not guarantee admission. (Good luck!)</p>
<p>Overall, you’re a very impressive applicant. However, admission officers at Brown work tirelessly to assemble an interesting Class of 2014 out of 25000 applicants. That’s a tough job. Notice I said “interesting,” because they can’t POSSIBLY pick out all the perfect applicants, because otherwise everyone at Brown would be the same … perfect and possibly robotic. You have the stats and everything else to excel at Brown. But what makes you stand out? You should be passionate about something. That can be anything: solving math problems, researching the unknown, or as simple as baking a cake. Reveal that passion in your essays. Admission officers love passion, because that is something that helps make people interesting and human. </p>
<p>Chances: **REACH<a href=“hey%20for%20everyone%20applying%20to%20Brown,%20it%20is,%20because%20admission%20is%20such%20a%20crapshoot%20…%20but%20your%20chances%20are%20certainly%20at%20least%20slightly%20better%20than%20for%20most%20people”>/b</a></p>
<p>One small gripe though. If you’re SO interested in coming to Brown, you should totally go to Summer@Brown instead of the Stanford Summer Program, because then your interest in Brown will be more genuine.</p>
