<p>raise the SAT (PSAT) scores a tad-more and you should be fine. it goes without saying though, but Brown will look more at your ECs than your actual number grades -- so you too should concentrate more on what makes you different from the other students applying.... a lot of kids applying will have your same scores -- not everyone will be a member of this club or be a founder of this organization.... you'll figure it out soon enough once you get into the whole college process more</p>
