Chances of getting into Brown University

<p>So I'm a sophomore in the IB Program
Ranked 8/544
Took 6 APs thus far
Going to take another 6 APs in junior year and 6 IB exams in senior year
I play 4 varsity sports (although they start junior year) soccer, tennis, cross country, and track
I volunteer at the hospital and have 5 honor societies that want to induct me<br>
I coach a youth soccer team, play club soccer, and am planning on trying out for the Olympic Development program squad for my state. I'm passionate about a lot of things, working out, sports, soccer, and women just to name a few(; hit me hard with reality. What are my chances?! I'm not a super try-hard that'll become depressed if I don't make it into my dream college, I just feel that I'll be able to do more good in the world if I get into a world class college like this with theworld class education that the Ivy League undoubtedly offers</p>

<p>I don’t see why you’d throw some of the other (comparatively higher league) ivies such as Yale, Princeton, or even Harvard into the mix.</p>

<p>12 APs, 6 IBs, top 2% class rank, 4 varsity sports (from sophomore year), volunteer work, multiple honor societies, and potentially going pretty far in soccer… Yeah. You’ll do fine</p>

<p>Yeah but I forgot to mention that I’d be classified into the Asian bracket…relatively high income too. So that’s what’s getting me a little anxious</p>

<p>Well I took the sat 2 world history exam and got a 770. I am scheduled to take the SAT/ACT in October. And I’m naming on taking 3 more SAT 2s in May. I’m not sure which ones yet</p>

<p>Get some solid leadership roles in your ECs and community service work. And don’t bother with more than one honor society – these are derivative organizations that don’t tell the adcoms anything: they will already have the stats in front of them that are the basis of your honor society acceptances. Joining a bunch of them is like navel-gazing or patting yourself on the back: Surely you can find better things to do in a primary activity (for what it’s worth, my son passed on filing out his NHS application and he was admitted to Brown without any honors societies on his record).</p>

<p>Here is a link to acceptance stats depending on your class rank and test scores. As you will see, no single item is a golden admissions ticket:</p>

<p>You will be a competitive applicant, but that’s really as much as I (or anybody else, for that matter) can say. Continue getting good grades, and aim for good scores on the SATs (though remember, an application is more than just the objective numbers). I can only echo Lorem’s suggestions that you try to gain leadership roles in your activities. Other than that, it seems like you have a passion for soccer, so just continue pursuing that – do things you legitimately love, not just for the reason of getting into a good college. </p>

<p>Best of luck!</p>

<p>I forgot to mention that I have been a team captain for Relay for Life for the past two years, am on track to be varsity high school captain for soccer in senior year, and am being elected into the Relay for Life committee and even hopefully get a chair position in it. I also have applied for a student government role for junior year and all that’s left for me to pass is the interview. I might even get elected president of Spanish national honor society in senior year, but that’s speculation</p>

<p>I probably won’t do as many honor societies</p>
