From the Brown Admission Page: We want to emphasize that test scores are only one of the many parts of the evaluation process. Again, your application is considered in its entirety; there are no pre-set standards that must be met.

I think you will have an application of interest. It is important to work to make a good and compelling essay. I will read yours if you like. Also the idea for the unconventional one. They can be good, but there are some that just don't make sense to persue.

Your stats are within range of accepted students. I was just looking at a school that had 10 apply with 2 accepted and 3 waitlisted. The accepted and reject were not based on SAT's as some rejected had the same SATs as the 2 accepted. One waitlist had low 600's, while rejects had high 700s. As long as you are 'in-line' the SATs cease to matter all that much, it seems.
