My son had similar stats although the wasn’t in IB. Had about 11-12APs and a few more honors. Didn’t do band but was varsity and club sports. Tons of volunteering (long-term ones), leadership, part time work, an internship. No research. No national awards other than AP ones and National Merit Commended. His personality and how he felt he was a good fit for Brown got him deferred during ED round but accepted in regular decision. He just finished first full week at Brown as a freshman today. If your kiddo really wants to go to Brown, I would let him go for it.
