if this is a waste of time, then apologies

Hey so I'm a Junior in CA, wondering about what my shot is at Brown, if any. here's the profile

ACT Composite: 33

SAT IIs: Span: 770 Lit: 710

AP's: Span- 5 Eng- 4 US History- 3

GPA: 3.44 (with hardest courses)

ECs listed on app: football, track, was in 2 clubs, and work

Job/Work Experience: did finances that were really receipts at a family friend's company and also had a job too

Essays (subject and responses): already started so they should be very good- on two hardships that have come down on me the last 2 years, and my dealing w/ them.

Teacher Recs: better than great

Counselor Rec: great

School Type: Private, does not rank

Ethnicity: Hispanic

Gender:M

Also: Took 2 summer courses at a local comm. college- pysch and creative writing, both got A's. and i also got 4 academic awards (not sure if it means much, but what the hell)

(i'm wondering, will AA help?)

thanks alot

Alcoholics Anonymous works well. Use the 12 step program and The Big Book

yeah i might need that. i'll be sure to keep that in mind.

especially with the way my warriors have gone, i might need it as guidance.
