<p>Not top of class, average (for them SATs), Indian, no stand out ECs–I’d try NU ED.</p>

<p>I don’t think you’ve got a great chance at Brown, so, yes, Northwestern. Have you considered University of Chicago? They have an absolutely unbelievable economics program. THe only problem is that you’d need to rewrite your essay to be a little more quirky and imaginative…and also to fit one of their weird essay prompts. If you’re the quirky intellectual sort, you would LOVE it. It was a little too cerebral for me when I visited.</p>
