<p>hey there</p>

<p>just read the informations for international students on the Brown website (<a href="http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Admission/applyingtobrown/internationalstudents.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://www.brown.edu/Administration/Admission/applyingtobrown/internationalstudents.html&lt;/a&gt;) and some questions occured:</p>

<p>"If your native language is not English, the Board of Admission requires that you submit the results of the Test of English as a Foreign Language (TOEFL) as evidence that your English proficiency is satisfactory for study at Brown. A TOEFL score of 600 or above on the written exam, or 250 or above on the computer-based exam, is required in most cases. The TOEFL requirement is waived for candidates who have scored a 600 or above on the SAT I verbal examination."</p>

<p>Why isn't it possible to send the internet-based-test? Actually it's much more common than the paper-based, the computer-based is even disposed .. does anybody know about this issue?</p>

<p>what do they mean with "SAT I verbal examination"? CR? </p>

<p>frankly it looks to me as if they hadn't updated this site for years ;)</p>

<p>“What do they mean with SAT I verbal examination”? CR? - YES
They hadn't updated the site (I hope so). If I remember correctly 100 in IB TOEFL is the same as 250 and 600 on the computer based and paper based, respectively.</p>

<p>Just email the admission officer and ask, whether they take IB scores or not.</p>

<p>ok, it's verfied now..
Their minimum score for iBT is "around 100".</p>
