Chances?

GPA: 3.5 unweighted, 4.4 weighted

AP US History - 4
AP - English Composition - 4
Currently taking:
AP Calculus
AP Physics
AP English Literature

Extra curricular:
National Honor Society
Drama Club Vice President (4 years, participated in over 8 shows)
School newspaper
Volunteer at local community theater
Winner -- New England Drama Festival (Best Timing)

I'm a little concerned about the unweighted 3.5 GPA and the disparity in SAT scores? Also, do they look at the weighted GPA?

My D was accepted with 150 pts disparity between high Verbal and lower Math SAT. Brandeis admissions is not governed by numbers alone --it is much more holistic.

I think you make it in. Since they have a ton of student theater groups at the school (in addition to the plays produced by the theater dep't) I would play up your theater background in the application.
