<p>Hi CC,
I was deferred to PLME- what do I do?</p>
<p>Here are stats Brown has that you may not: 4.0 UW (junior year), 34 composite ACT, no rank
I lost my 4.0 to physics this semester and now only have a 3.946. 
will this factor into Alpert’s evaluation of me too heavily? </p>
<p>Subject test scores that Brown doesn’t have: 690 bio, 680 chem, 780 math II. I definitely want to send my math score, but sending just one probably looks bad–they’ll probably know I’m trying to hide more.</p>
<p>I plan on sending a passionate letter of intent, telling them how much a student like me would benefit from a guaranteed spot in medical school, etc… Should I send this to Brown or the Alpert School of Medicine?
Will an additional science recommendation help? </p>
<p>thanks guys. :)</p>
<p>i don’t really know why you’re so concerned about your GPA when your SAT IIs is what you should be worried about</p>
<p>and if physics (which is a science) brought down your grade, isnt that a little weird?</p>
<p>anyway, did you get into Brown or deferred from that too? I think that’s an important factor in deciding where to send your extra rec letter</p>
<p>There’s nothing i can do about my subject test scores, which are optional in the first place. I decided to send my math and pretend the others don’t exist.</p>
<p>And no it’s not weird because more than half of my class got Bs in physics. Long story short, it’s a required class that is far too difficult for anything I will ever need as a pre-med, and my GC will explain the situation with physics in my mid year report.</p>
<p>I was accepted to Brown. I called the admissions office and a PLME admissions officer said that I should send additional materials to Brown’s undergraduate admissions office.</p>
<p>I guess since I answered my own questions by asking RL friends and calling Brown, unless anyone has additional advice, I’ll let the board die.</p>
