<p>I’m applying class of 2014, gonna be a senior next year
anywho </p>

<p>Stats:
ACT: 34
GPA: 4.3 ish weighted, 3.7-3.8 ish unweighted
Rank: because of a weird system, I’m technically 43/424, but they rank me #1
AP Courses: APUSH, AP euro, AP calc BC, AP bio, AP language. Next year: AP statistics, AP physics B, AP lit, AP gov
AP Exams:only taken APUSH test, got a 5</p>

<p>Subjective:
Extracurriculars:
guitar(studied with classical indian musician, can play some pretty tough jazz stuff, gonna be in jazz band next year, compose music, plan on sending CD next year)
NHS (going for president) hospital volunteering
Going to do research over the summer with a biochemist at Ohio State for something like 15 hours a week, taking chemistry over the summer at OSU
School Type: public
Gender: M
From the indian subcontinent.</p>

<p>I have about 40 hours of service at the hospital, but I could get that up to like 200 or whatever I need to. I plan on sending a CD too to showcase my musical ability. I also run Cross Country, but I’m pretty terrible, its more for fun.</p>

<p>Obviously still working on my app for applying next year. I am for sure a national merit commended, doubt I’m much better. My teachers love me because i’m a pretty exuberant student (and I think I know teachers that would be good for recs) , I’m a pretty good writer too so I’m not too worried about my college essays. </p>

<p>So what can I add, what would make me a winner.</p>

<p>Sorry! You can’t predict chances for Brown! Or really for anywhere. I had a cousin get into Princeton but not Clemson Honors :P</p>

<p>Whatever people have to say here is either going to make you nervous or build up your hopes.</p>

<p>All you can do is your best.</p>

<p>you know what you are really right. BUT do you know what I can do to soup up my application? I’m getting whatever I can and I want to know what I’m missing mostly</p>

<p>I think it sounds like you’re well on your way…just maintain the sparkling grades, take any required SAT Subject Tests (even if you take the ACT, many colleges will also make you take SAT Subject Tests), and stay involved with your school and community. Good luck!</p>

<p>I think your stats are pretty mediocre for this school, but brush up and enforce your interests and you have a chance.</p>
