<p>You have a great chance! Good luck!</p>

<p>People like you should be banned from doing posts like these because they only serve to make others feel inferior and disillusioned with the whole college admissions process. Have fun at brown...</p>

<p>Brown denies kids like him sometimes.</p>

<p>ok..sorry if my post had an arrogant tone to it, that was not my intention. I've worked very hard the past four years to get into a good school and I am very proud of all my accomplishments, as I'm sure you are proud of yours as well. I have just as good of a chance as does you or anyone else who applied to brown.</p>

<p>No, I'm pretty sure there are kids with alumni big donor parents and 1600/800/800/800/800/800s who have spent their summers deworming orphans in Somalia who have better chances than you.</p>

<p>But if you really think that, this post must not be necessary!</p>

<p>Don't mind me. I'm just jealous and get upset when kids apply to Stanford and Brown and prefer Stanford.</p>

<p>You seem exceptionally qualified. You have the Academics to back up devotion to others and athletics. I expected your EC's to be lack luster from the strength of your Academics but you are strong all around.</p>

8

<p>Lol, seriously, take a look at your scores, your stats, extracurriculars etc...... now, do you think you have a "chance"? You are definitely going to be a competitive applicant... just make sure you don't blow off the essays.</p>

<p>thanks guys. i really appreciate it</p>

<p>I just hope the admissions people feel the same way</p>

<p>I think that you have a pretty good chance- at least, better that I. Go for it!</p>

<p>good luck to u as well</p>

<p>you'll be fine</p>

<p>and if you're quirky, or a "go getter" type person, brown seems to like that too lol</p>

<p>no 1600?</p>

<p>rejected everywhere.</p>

<p>Amor - Lol</p>

15

<p>Honestly. You should be ashamed of yourself. A 1580 is an absolute disgrace.</p>

16

<p>i am very disgusted with myself.</p>

<p>Yeah for beating on the new kid!!!</p>
