You have great grades and scores, so those won’t keep you out. Your ECs seem strong enough to carry you.
It will probably come down to how your personality comes across in your teacher recommendations and essays. If the right people read your essays then you’ll probably make it in, but if someone reads it and doesn’t emotionally connect you could be deferred to the regular round.
You have excellent stats. So, make sure your essays are really good, and you can articulate how you can fit in Brown. PLME probably needs extra essays to show your interest in medicine. Are you aware, by applying ED, you have to attend Brown undergrad, even if not admitted to PLME ?
PLME needs a level of health delivery experience that a count of hours at a hospital can’t convey. What did you do? It’s still a lower admit rate than to the college. OP, you should be looking at the full app and supps.
@NCKris Thanks. Yes, I understand. I was torn between Brown and Yale, but I’d be happy going to Brown undergraduate.
@lookingforward I worked in different departments at the hospital. How can I work more on my full app/supps? How much does PLME consider the regular Brown essays?
See, I worry that you want Brown ED -and PLME- and don’t seem to understand what they look for, regular app or PLME.
You can look at the CA, supp, and PLME supp, see what they ask. Presumably, you’re working on some of that. But PLME wants to learn your healthcare delivery experience. Not just the number of hours at a hospital. Saying you worked “in various depts” doesn’t tell what you did. For all we know, you distributed newspapers or vol’d in the gift shop.
And, realize that a tippy top holistic looks at everything in your full app pkg.
*in some cases, health advocacy in the local community, organizations promoting change.
@lookingforward Thank you for your advice! I’ll keep that in mind. I really like the Open Curriculum, which I understand is pretty generic, but it’s what really distinguishes Brown from other schools for me.
