As you probably know if you have read others “can I get in” threads, those of us who have dealt with admissions for a long time will not give you a definite answer. You have a very good profile, after that it has to do with your essays, and recs. Then it is just some weird fate/admissions officers gut feeling/chance that pulls you out of the hundreds of students with similar stats. Let your essay be your best expression of who you are and why you are a good fit for Brown/vice versa; not by delineating that expressly, but in the context of something interesting to read I think is really the best. (Just my opinion, again I don’t sit in the admissions office).
And I’m not too worried about the math SAT unless you are applying expressing interest as a math/engineering etc. major. I assume you are taking calculus now or have taken?
