<p>Thank you!</p>

<p>These stats look very polished for someone of Hispanic descent, first gen, low income. I would say you probably have a good shot at it, considering the AP workload that you’ve taken and are taking. Furthermore, your ECs are outstanding and very impressive. You stand a good chance.</p>

<p>Thanks. Anyone else? Bum, bump ^</p>

<p>Bump, bump.</p>

<p>if you get your sat’s up a little bit, i’d say you’re pretty much match for dartmouth ED
the urm status will help you, your ec’s seem relevant and you course load is great.
assuming you get good recs and write a good essay you should have a good chance</p>

<p>chance back!

<p>Bump, bump</p>

<p>low reach IMO. Dartmouth is a very competitive schools but you seem like a solid applicant for it. SAT scores are weak so retake them or take the ACT for november (I think you can still sign up)
