<p>I guess you are Asian…
Scores are too low… not a big chance</p>

3

<p>Oh…nvm… you are Asian LOL</p>

4

<p>and your ECs… not very good sorry</p>

5

<p>huh. yes im asian. lol</p>

6

<p>Your scores are certainly not too low for acceptance. That is complete bunk. Your scores and gpa are in-range. Your rank is great. Sounds like you are a writer, so write great essays.</p>

<p>I’m not sure about your EC’s. Very good but not that distinctive of most applicants, perhaps. For the awards, they are redundant of your grades and classes, so not that important. The committee can already see that. </p>

<p>And legacy? You are hooked, but aside from that, I’d have said you have a good shot. Are you ED? I am blanking on CAS?</p>

7

<p>^By CAS, he means “college of arts and sciences”. But to the OP, you apply to Brown as a whole, and not to a specific college within brown. Brown is known as being a “university-college”.</p>

8

<p>lol… he is asian… it should be higher…
but it’s still good tho</p>

9

<p>You have a shot. Your scores are lower than most, yet your weighted gpa should cover some ground. Your recs will bolster the application, just your ec’s are not as extensive as others. If you are serious about Brown, I would reccomend applying ED. Good Luck, you will be in the mix.</p>

10

<p>EC’s look good to me… not much breadth but certainly depth. I’d say you’ve got a decent chance.</p>

11

<p>Huh? His scores aren’t low!
They’re right in the 50% range, I wouldn’t worry about them at ALL, they’re fine :slight_smile:
Good luck!</p>

<p>This isn’t advice, and I hate to point it out, but you’re not a candidate for the College Board’s international diploma: you need two different AP exams from two different languages for that to work. Yeah, I know, I thought I was an APID too.</p>
