<p>In High School I was an abysmal student, and got a 3.10 overall GPA. Even worse, I never took the SAT’s, so I cannot submit them. However, after High School I did a complete 180 degree turn. After three semester at the number 3 JC in America, I have only gotten straight A’s. I have held a job since Junior Year, play and record music, have volunteered for over a year at my local Humane Society, am part of the Astronomy club, and participate in non-competitive sports. With great essays do I stand a chance at getting into Brown?</p>
<p>Not sure what a JC is…Junior College? It sounds as if you’d be a transfer student and the application process is quite different for transfers. They almost exclusively want to know your current transcript. Like HS, they’ll want to know that you challenged yourself. And it helps to have a clear, specific goal for your concentration. You should also check their requirements for your particular concentration too, to see if you’ve already done some of them. While they might also ask for your HS transcript and scores, those are less important. Do you stand a chance? Only they know for sure.</p>
<p>Yes, that is a Junior College.</p>
