<p>wow…you were accepted with a 3.325 unweighted GPA…wow</p>

165

<p>o im sorry weighted…wow even more</p>

166

<p>someone should average these scores together…take the sat score averages and the GPA of public and private…yeah</p>

167

<p>does brown require an interview?</p>

168

<p>I don’t think it is required. But if you don’t ask for one, there is always the risk that Brown will see it as a lack of enthusiasm for the school.</p>

I have the feeling that if you can show this, that that is a huge advantage in getting accepted at Brown.</p>

171

<p>Brown does not require an interview, but if you live in an area where interviews are offered (all of the US and a lot of foreign countries with lots of appliants) then you definitely should have one, because it looks bad to be offered the chance and then turn it down.</p>

<p>those are some really good SATII scores :)</p>

<p>I took my first SATII in 9th grade (bio) and received a 700 (not so great)… does it make a difference that i took it so young, or should i retake it after AP bio in 12th grade???</p>

175

<p>hey I was just wondering if I only have 5 AP Classes/College courses, would that inhibit my brown admission?</p>

176

<p>people have said this a million times on this board – the number of APs doesn’t matter, what matters is that you’re taking the hardest curriculum your school has to offer</p>

<p>and why is this still a sticky?</p>

177

<p>I don’t necessarily agree that submitting ACT is bad because it “puts you in the minority”. Look at the results of ECCO1lvn, for example. Could it be that the % accepted with ACT is lower than % accepted with SAT simply because fewer submit the ACT, therefore fewer ACT students will be represented in the accepted applicant pool?..this in itself doesn’t necessarily mean that one is at a disadvantage in submitting the ACT.</p>
