Why WON’T you get into Brown? Not perfect grades
Did you apply to any other Ivies, or is Brown your only one? All except Univ of Penn
How many kids do you personally know who applied to Brown too? Two others: they both got admitted in the fall. (One is from his sports team and the boy attends a different HS)

How many kids typically get accepted from your school to Brown? One (mostly) or two
