Especially with your wealth of AP classes there is no reason why you shouldn't be admitted to the schools of your choice. I don't believe Brown is as selective (though it is still extremely selective) as Yale, MIT, or Harvard, so you could probably rest assured of your acceptance. I think you're making a good choice, wherever I read I hear great things about Brown University, especially from a student-perspective.

Applied to Princeton, though I doubt I would end up going. Their professors are unresponsive to e-mail and I fear that means they wouldn't be too interested in helping me out if I were a student there. Plus, I would have next to no opportunities for undergraduate research there, and the biology program is somewhat lacking compared to Brown or U. Miami.
