Do I have a shot at Brown ED

Chance Me / Match Me
1

As the title stated I would like to know if I am competitive for brown Ed next year. I am from a small public in mass with almost no history of sending kids to top schools.
GPA ~94 uw or ~3.8 weighted is probably ~3.95 due to lack of APs (school only offers apwh and apush as well as pre ap English before senior year)
Class rank: approx top ten %
ACT: 33 second sitting. Was wondering if I should retake since I have consistently gotten 34s in practice tests
Ap scores: on APWH expecting 5 in USH
First Gen college student if it makes a difference

Extra curriculars: varsity baseball and track 9-12, won regional math competition ( nothing major), NHS, class VP, section leader in band, ~100 hours volunteering, summer job, a couple clubs (kinda light I know)
Essays should be solid and I feel I would fit well into Brown. Recs will be excellent as I have had the same teachers for years and we are relatively close.
Will take subject tests soon expecting 700+ in math, Chem, and history
Is this too far of a reach or is there I slight chance Brown would accept me? Thanks!

I mean, if your school really has “almost no history of sending kids to top schools” then you need to be top 2.5% really. It doesn’t seem as if you have any massive “hooks.” Any chance you can play collegiate baseball or track?

I think, given that your school is limited in academics, that colleges like Brown will want to know how you push yourself academically and supplement what your school offers. Or what kind of activities you do outside of school to develop intellectual and other talent pursuits. And yes, first to go to college is a target group, maybe not quite a hook but considered.

If you apply ED, make sure the NPC shows a cost that works for your family. Because you will have to accept or decline your admission without comparing to other offers.
