I'll have good essays & recomendations
ED is for Early Decision. I will attempt at their Medical Program.
I live on a naval housing base. I have good character, very passionate about my education.
I'm also in the top 5% of my class. If not ranking number 1.
Sorry, I didn't distinguish them. I took Biology (740) and US History (750) for subject tests.
I'll definitely be working on SAT Reasoning Math and Critical Reading. Unfortunately I had the stomach flu when I took it for the first time.
You have a really good profile, and I'd say to definetly give it a shot. Applying ED raises your chances of getting in from something like 12% to 17%.
I don't know much about the PLME program except that it's really competitive.
I applied ED to Brown, and my SAT score was a little bit lower than yours (but I didn't take any subject tests and so I submitted my ACT, which they accept in place of the SAT and Subject tests)
If you know you want to come, apply ED. It's a lot less nerve racking to know where you're going a whole semester before everyone else, AND you can get a Brown hoodie to sport for Christmas.
I hope to see you on campus next year!
