[<em>] SAT: CR: 760, M: 750, W:800

[<em>] GPA: 4.77 weighted, 96.95/100 unweighted
[</em>] Rank: 1/75
[<em>] Other stats: National Merit [winner, listed Brown as top choice], Bausch and Lomb Science Award, Harvard Book Award, MA Association of Superintendents Award, other awards
[/ul]Subjective:[ul]
[</em>] Essays: Brown was the last application that I finished, mostly because I didn't want to do the essays. I think overall they were pretty strong, but my last one (on why I wanted to be an engineer) was really weird. I think I started talking about homicidal robots/H2G2.
[<em>] Teacher Recs: Excellent. The teachers told me that they rated me as the best student they've had?
[</em>] Counselor Rec: No idea. I never asked to see it. I had to call all my schools to check up on whether she was actually even filling out the correct forms.
[<em>] Hook (if any): I skipped pre-calculus and went straight to AP Calc. I had to take AP Stats online this year because there was no math left for me. I also made a duct tape dress.

I also did GEMS at WPI before my junior year.</p>
<p>My interview was slightly weird. The guy talked more than I did. He also looked just like George W. Bush. He seemed to like me, though.
General Comments: I loved Brown a lot. It's been at the top of my list for a while. I'm not sure if I'll be attending, though. I'm going to ADOCH if possible, but I'm thinking of going to Franklin W. Olin College of Engineering.</p>

General Comments: I'm certainly not surprised on the non-acceptance, and actually surprised that it's a waitlisting instead of a rejection, but I guess the Penn acceptance gave me a little more hope than usual. I really want to go to Brown, but if it's not meant to be, it's not meant to be; they actually made my job of picking a college in the fall a little easier.</p>
