i've seen this thread so many times under so many titles.
you may wanna list your "many more" EC's so we can get a better idea, because your AP scores and standardized test scores are not stellar, though they aren't bad.

Your chances are very low at both Brown and Cornell

It's a crapshoot like it is for anyone who applies to an Ivy. Do you have especially low chances? I don't think so.

listen, admissions are crapshots to these schools, three people have gotten into cornell from my school lready that have had sats lower then 1320 and two of them were in the top 10%, just go for it.
