<p>Is a 32 act score high enough to get into the most selective schools like Brown?</p>
<p>Your research skills clearly aren’t.</p>
<p>Haha, Good one.
Yes, 32 is a very good score but its only a slice of a pie. If you have good ECS, essay, etc, then you would have a decent chance.</p>
<p>No way near…</p>
<p>Yes it is. A 32 would put you in the running at Brown. It wouldnt be a primary factor or red flag ending any chance you have. 32 is sufficient for Brown I believe.</p>
<p>My friend had a 1500/2400 and got wait-listed at brown, and his grades were above average but not so extraordinary either. So don’t lose sleep over a mere ACT score since there are many things you can do to mitigate your app. Besides, like i said before, you have a good score so your chances are good as long as you serve them the whole pie.</p>

<p>Studying a word list, I see? That’s an improper use of “mitigate”.</p>
<p>haha yeah I wish I could “mitigate” my application as well. </p>
<p>Maybe that would give me “diminished” chances at an ivy.</p>
<p>Bahahahahah! Yep :)</p>
<p>lol. </p>

<p>Ive always thought mitigate means improve- i actually “thought” i learned the word through a book, but i guess im not so good at figuring out words in context. ill be leaving that word out of my college ap for sure. I guess what i meant was “ameliorate” . Haha. I actually got a question wrong on a practice test b/c i thought mitigate meant to improve, lol. Thanks for the reminder</p>
<p>“ameliorate” is much better. But why not keep it simple and just say “improve”? That way, we remove all pretentions and what you’re trying to say becomes clearer.</p>
<p>Helps my mind retain the words when i used them. It also helps people who don’t know what it means on CC learn new words.</p>
<p>you’re going to need a very good gpa…</p>
