<p>anyone please?</p>

<p>your chances would be a lot better if you went ED</p>

4

<p>How much better?</p>

5

<p>going ED raises your SAT score by 200+ points…</p>

<p>and it would be about 10-15% better chances</p>

<p>(but then again, you’re going against the cream of the crop in the ED round, but good luck!)</p>

<p>bump …</p>

<p>The film award thing can be big if you play your cards properly. The congressman rec can always help. However, a 3.4 UW GPA is much lower than the nationwide average. </p>

<p>I would give you low to middle chances.</p>

<p>whomever that ED kid that said it would raise your SAT score 200 pts…just don’t listen to him…</p>

<p>Brown isn’t only about numbers for one thing…and dont’ do ED jusst to “increase chances”</p>

<p>Is Brown ED really the “cream of the crop”? Surely, there’s less unqualified people who are applying for the heck of it in ED, but aren’t a lot of the superlative students going to early at HYPS instead? Looking at the Brown RD v. ED people, the RD people tend to have clearly higher stats… Maybe I’m just pulling stuff out of nowhere. o_o</p>
