<p>Hey guys,</p>
<p>Anyone else’s counselors been receiving phone call(s) from Brown for your first quarter grades?</p>
<p>yes 10char</p>
<p>I did not hear about any phone call, but that could be because my counselor forgets to tell me many things. I assume the calls are for borderline students, do they call for everybody or just these special cases. I viewed my self as fo-sho or fo-maybe (borderline).</p>
<p>Yeah they called me. </p>
<p>They did ask for grades though- and I don’t want this to be conceited or anything, but do you think these grades are something to be looked at as good or bad? </p>
<p>AP Gov- 92
AP Stats- 91
AP Lit- 94 </p>
<p>The rest were fine, so I do have all A’s, but do you think that they are afraid I am slipping in Gov and Stats?</p>
<p>@nate
I wouldn’t think so, some schools make AP Stats a VERY challenging class, and some schools not so much at all. So it’s not like they know.</p>
<p>My counselor told me that she was called for an ED brown applicant of her’s last year AND the year before…and that both applicants was accepted…</p>
<p>maybe a good sign?</p>
<p>anybody NOT get a call yet??</p>
<p>I haven’t got a call yet, I’ll email my counselor to ask about it. I think if they called and your grades were fine your in the green, but nothing is for-certain</p>
<p>I haven’t gotten a call. Hopefully some kids get in without a call :/</p>
<p>yeay hopefully cause i didnt get a call either. =((</p>
<p>@Panser, Bluecoast, and gmoraes- </p>
<p>If you look at about page 20 on the thread of last years ED Results, there were a few applicants who spoke about getting calls who were accepted and a few who said they did not receive calls but where also accepted, so really I wouldn’t think too much of it.</p>
<p>I highly doubt it is possible for them to call all 555 accepted applicants counselors.</p>
<p>well that is some good news. for once. I really hope I get in through ed, I don’t think I can go through this process again for regular decision to other schools</p>
<p>I asked my counselor to fax my quarterly grades over to Brown as soon as they were available. I know the lots of my friends college counselors at other schools do this. ED students are told to e-mail them the minute grades are given and to come in and sign a release allowing them to fax in grades immediately, if their grades are good and they want the college to see them. So, I would expect that a fair number of ED students had their grades sent in and did not need a call.</p>
<p>Yeah, but I do know that they are not a requirement to apply ED. I’m sure they are just using the grades as some means of further evaluation.</p>
<p>how do u know if you’ve gotten a call or not. DOes ur GC tell u?? I could’ve gotten one and just wasn’t told.</p>
<p>I’m going to ask my guidance counselor tomorrow.</p>
<p>what if my school gives out semester grades? could that be why they haven’t called yet?</p>
<p>I really wouldn’t look too much into it. If they wanted grades from everybody, they would make it a requirement to send them when you apply ED.</p>
<p>if they call for grades i think it means they are interested and want to know more. you may or not be accepted. if they don’t call, they are probably sure of either a yes or a no. i hope its a yes for everyone!</p>
