Hi!! My name is Ava, and I am a freshman at Brown University as part of the Program in Liberal Medical Education. I hope to use this channel as a way to provide advice for the college application process, share insight into college life, and connect with you all! Stick around and be sure to let me know if there are any videos you're interested in having me create ;)
This video made me so happy. You obviously worked so hard for these accomplishments! I hope college is going well! I am starting law school soon. I won’t make a video like this but I hope I get scores needed to get into schools like these lol
The brown plme surpasses any school out there including harvard. The structure of the plme is so geared towards the students interests unlike other joint programs. I am hoping my son is admitted as well. Are you still doing the essay readings? I may need your services.
Hi Ava, My son and I just toured Brown and fell in love with the school. He is a sophomore with a weighted GPA of 4.27. He feels like he doesn’t have a chance at getting in since acceptance rate this year was 5%. Any encouraging words, advice I could pass on to him ? Are you still proud reading essays ? Wishing you all the best you are so sincere and genuine I thought I would reach out. Thank you !
I’m watching videos about Brown University because I was accepted there for graduate school many years ago. I chose a different school. I’ve often wondered how my life would have been different if I had taken Brown.
Hi Ava! I think you’re right about your theory with Brown Undergrad Admissions filtering PLME applicants-the admissions committee has to think you could get into Brown’s undergraduate program first before you can be considered for PLME. I don’t know if that confirms it per se but could very well support your hunch during the video
Hey I’m a first-year at brown and when I emailed the registrar they said they do not maintain admission officer comments for admission. How exactly were you able to view it and was there a specific email or person you contacted to do it?
When you get past your college/academic days you will realize the people who are somewhat controlling your life now, really don't have much going for themselves...
This is awesome! Thank you!!! Please please make more content about essays! I’d love to see something on recommendations maybe as well, like how you went about that process! ❤
Academically, are you doing well at Brown? Going back to my college days, I had a professor in graduate school who had received his doctorate from Brown...
Hello Ava. Enjoyed your vlog. It accurately captured the non-stop activity of move-in/orientation week. I still remember driving up from Washington, DC to Providence, RI with my parents some 50 years ago! Not much has changed except for the technology (no PCs, Internet, or cellphones back then). Looking forward to accompanying you on your amazing journey. Brown is a wonderful place. Good luck. I'll be cheering for you from the sidelines. - Joseph Burno (Brown class of 76)
Thank you, Joseph!! It truly was a whirlwind week, and I'm glad to hear that the spirit of it has been consistent throughout many years of orientation. I appreciate all of your support :)
