<p>I have GREAT and unusal EC, but mostly from high school. Including being the only girl on boys wrestling and football teams, being a champion rugby player and wrestler, extremely good potter, science research, science camp teacher, ceramics teacher, plus others </p>

<p>At college I am in the women in science club, green club, dodgeball club, rugby team, do ceramics and glass blowing, college democrats, etc. a few standout accomplishments like a trip to restore the everglades and leading a science camp for kids, but nothing spectacular. </p>

<p>What I think are 2 extremely good essays
2 outstanding supplementary essays
2, presumably, excellent recs from professors</p>

<p>Exceptional ceramics portfolio
Very god booklet put together for a undergrad level science research internship in 2000</p>

<p>I have a little bit of admissions help from the rugby team, but not much.
Been in contact with my admin counselor</p>

<p>Brown is need aware, and I have an EFC of 18 grand </p>

<p>Any thoughts on my chances? PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!!!</p>

<p>GO FOR IT! I am not sure with how hard it is to get into selective schools from transferring, but I think you have a great shot! GO FOR IT AND GOOD LUCK!</p>
