Well honestly, you could definitely stand to get your ACT up a good 4-6 points. Other then that i think you have about the same chance as every other extremely talented and accomplished applicant to brown which is very little. If I was a Brown Admissions Officer I would take you and I think that there's a decent shot. That award from the prez should mean a LOT.

Thanks sarah, I am really nervous that decisions are soon, especially since my stats are weak for Ivy schools
