<p>Please post your AI if you applied to Dartmouth and whether you were accepted/denied. Please state other circumstances if you believe your AI to be out of the norm for your acceptance decision. Thanks</p>
<p>9...i think 232. not a minority or athlete; good ecs </p>
<p>accepted</p>
<p>I have an AI of 232 as well. Accepted (and attending). But really, don't put too much stock, or really any at all, in AI. You put in so little information, it doesn't really capture the real you. I go to a very noncompetitive high school, so being first in my class of 370 (we have 9 valedictorians!) is not as much of an accomplishment as being first in your class at a competitive school. And you've probably heard it a hundred times: test scores aren't the end all either, as long as you hit a certain benchmark, you are set.</p>
<p>I was gonna say...one of the things i noticed at Dartmouth was that people don't generally refer to their stats much. It just generally accepted that everybody has some game. So worry not..just work hard. Everything else in this book has already been written.</p>
<p>Quick question what is AI and CRS??,</p>
<p>AI is academic index. I hadn't heard of it until I joined this site, and then I saw people mention it. There is a link somewhere on the main page, I calculated mine for fun because I was curious. Basically you just enter your SAT, three SAT IIs, GPA and rank, and it spits back a number (the highest is 240). The numbers are then separated, so, say (I don't remember) a 225-240 has an academic index of 9 (which is the highest). As you can tell, it is entirely numbers based, so it doesn't really tell that much about a person. Some people think colleges pay attention to it, so people think it doesn't really matter. About CRS, I don't know either.</p>
<p>I actually spoke with the dartmouth rep. who came to my school about AI and she sorta wavered about whether they use it or not, but mentioned that its importance has been overstated and they were trying to move away from it.</p>
<p>AI-229 (8), Decision: Accepted. I have a feeling it is still, in some manner, being used at Dartmouth, but probably not at HYP.</p>
<p>only 218, and I got in. Then again, for rank, i could only say top 10%, which out of 370 (at a very intense school) could be anything in a big range of place.</p>
<p>236, Likely Letter.</p>
<p>Joe</p>
<p>235 (9?)
likely letter</p>
<p>mine was likely letter also</p>
<p>Hey thats right, I got a likely letter too. How did that happen with my comparatively low AI?</p>
<p>Mine too.</p>
<p>Damn character limit!</p>
<p>Accepted with a 231 (seating 9) and a likely letter.</p>
<p>232, likely</p>
