<p>First, let me say that if you are going to a private boarding school, I fail to see why you should get preference over an asian kid who went to an inner city public high school, and has better grades and sat scores, merely because you are “hispanic”. (I do fully agree with the policy that people who truly grew up in tough socio-economic backgrounds, but who have still done well, deserve special consideration).</p>
<p>But given that this is the world we live in now, it is my impression that it is still not easy to get into Brown, even if you are a URM.</p>
<p>So, instead of needing a 2200 or 2300 on your SAT, you might only need a 2100.</p>
