<p>I go to a poor suburban school (ranked unacceptable by the state)and am ranked 7 out of 465. my GPA is 5.1800 on a 5.0 scale (it is very complicated) I do not know what it is unweighted. I take many AP classes but only one actual test and plan to take three at the end of the year. My SAT score is considerable low. CR - 600 Math - 670 and W - 550, but i think my essay will help me out and I am involved in a few EC like a varsity sport(soccer), Academic Decathalon and a Public Library Volunteer as well as very active in my church.</p>
<p>Dunno what to tell u except that its super competitive. have you checked out what other ppl who are asking CCers to chance them are saying? Do you think you could compete with them? Do you have anything really outstanding about your application?</p>
<p>Anyone ‘in range’ has a chance, so compare your stats with accepted students. But that does not mean that people out of range don’t get admitted. The application will be looked at wholistically. If you have something interesting or some potential they see, you may have a chance. In some way your school is a problem because the student needs to be able to do the work at Brown. However, since you are taking AP’s that have a set ciriculum and you are scoring at the top of your class, it may not be as much of an issue. Do your best on the AP scores (they are self reported, right?) But in other ways your school may help if you do show that you can do the work and they want some regional divirsity (you don’t say where you are from.) and you have overcome and succeeded despite the handicap of going to a crappy school in a poor area.</p>
<p>Really, no one can say, just realize that Brown is extremely competitive. That said, you don’t get admitted solely on having top SAT scores.</p>
