Stellar recommendations

Also, I took a class at Brown University this past summer. Would the award and summer program give me an advantage?

Save the time, effort, and money. Don't retake a 2300

I agree. A 2400 won't make you a better candidate and retaking the test may just show the adcoms that you have your priorities in the wrong place.

Your stats are stellar and you have a very strong chance of getting in. Your weakest area, however, is the limited amount of leadership shown in ECs and community service. I'd focus on leading/creating some sort of community service project where you can talk about the success of meeting a goal rather than just showing up and logging hours.

Also, a co-captainship in crew could turn out to be a big plus. My son, not at all in sports, received a general mailing from Brown's crew club this year, so they must be eager to find experienced participants.
