hi neophyte!
Have you considered retaking your SAT II? I think you can still have a good go at Brown, even if you don’t, your university choices sound good, and I wish you all the luck! Coureur is right, you were born in New Jersey so you are entitled to US citizenship something that will definitely help you out. With a US passport you don’t have to deal with Student visa requirements and travelling to and from the US is going to be slightly easier. It’ll also make it easier when you are looking for any kind of work there. For international students work permits can be very restrictive… If you’re sure about studying in the US, the fact that you were born there and a US passport is a good friend any given day.
