<p>255 views and 0 replies. Come on guys! I’m desperate here. And it’s definitely going to be Dartmouth at this point, so disregard Pomona.</p>

<p>A Turk from Utah: that’s unusual! :slight_smile: Are you a citizen? Will you be considered an international?</p>

<p>Get an additional recommendation from the bio research program, if you can.</p>

<p>If you get rejected, there won’t be a reason at which you can point your finger. You have great chances, but remember, these schools are HIGHLY competitive.</p>

<p>Your chances for ED at Dartmouth are good but its a reach for anyone unless you have a specific hook. Unfortunately I don’t think the Turkish angle will work!</p>
