CHANCE ME PLEASE, I APPRECIATE IT Y’ALL!!!</p>
<p>I don’t think one 3 is a big deal. If you’re really upset about it don’t send it in or retake it.
I can’t say that you have any better a chance at getting into Brown than the vast majority of their applicants, which look just like you on a resume, so put a lot of effort into those essays and good luck.</p>
<p>most colleges don’t care too much about AP scores—AP tests were developed during the cold war to compete against ussr, so much of the curricula are outdated.</p>
<p>thanks my biddies, I was feeling particularly colorful when I wrote that.
but does anyone have any good chancin’ words of advice? other than the pretentious ****er who commented first</p>
<p>AP tests are generally not used for admission purposes, so in terms of your GPA and SAT scores, I’m calling Brown a high match/low reach. Ivies are reaches for anyone, but you look to have a great shot at it.</p>
