I don’t know much about the transfer admissions process, but my guess would be that to counteract such a poor high school record, you would need to do an absolutely stellar job for at least two years of college, and have an explanation for why your high school record was so low. Since your high school record doesn’t really show a rising trend, and your SAT scores are good but not excellent, it would be unlikely that Brown would admit you after one year of college, since so many transfers are applying with excellent high school and college records. You’d probably look like too much of a gamble.

Good luck, though! Work hard wherever you are, and maybe your prospects will look up.
