I want to go to brown!

<p>Hey. So, regarding your first question, you can either submit the ACT or the SAT - it doesn’t matter. Some people tend to find the ACT easier, but others tend to prefer the SAT. With a score of 28 right now, you’re right on track! You should aim for around a 32, but anything above that would be great. As for the SAT IIs, most schools ask you to submit two (usually of your own choice), but there are some schools that ask for three. If I were you, I’d look at taking either Biology or Chemistry, US History, Math I or II, and maybe Lit? It’s your decision though :)</p>

<p>And back to one of your previous questions, if you truly are interested in Brown, you should look into EDing. Now, since Brown is need-blind, you will most likely get a good amount of FA (maybe not that much, since your family is well off, BUT if your family IS well off then you wouldn’t need much in the first place). You could also look into different scholarship programs too. Also, since it’s the summer, you should also think about prepping for the PSAT - with that ACT score and as a member of CTY, you could probably become a National Semifinalist. :)</p>

<p>Now, I think the weakest area in your application would be your ECs. They are ALL community oriented, with the exception of NHS. You don’t have any leadership roles yet either. Think about maybe starting a club next year - Future Doctors Alliance, maybe? :smiley: And DO try to land a position in student government. </p>

<p>Furthermore, your background is pretty unique. I don’t think I’ve ever heard of a pakistani/italian. But that should help your chances - you’d be considered a URM. But, are you an american citizen? If not, then you’d probably be considered part of the international applicant pool - which is MUCH more competitive - you would also receive hardly any, or no, FA.</p>

<p>Now, I don’t think you should look into PLME - they have around a 4% acceptance rate. Also, why would you want to stay in the SAME place for 8 whole years? I’d rather do four years at Brown and then four years at…maybe Johns Hopkins.</p>

<p>Anyways, GOOD LUCK :)</p>
