<p>I know my scores and ECs are on the low side… I really wanna go to Dartmouth and I was wondering if you guys could predict/comment my chance</p>

<p>Impossible to say! Your scores and GPA are certainly good enough; your going from ESL to AP English is terrific; and your ECs are very good. It depends who else is in the running! On paper, there's no reason why they wouldn't take you. It depends what else is going on.</p>

<p>I agree with VeryHappy. You've got good scores and ECs, and you seem like a nice candidate overall. I'd say you have as much a chance as anyone else. Go for it and good luck!</p>

<p>Your SAT could be a bit higher, but I'd say it's a match / slight reach.</p>

<p>im applying to other schools too so i cant say that i just wanna get into dartmouth... but i really wanna get into a prestigious undergrad b-school or an ivyleague school</p>

<p>thanks everyone (happy new yr!)</p>

<p>more comments are welcomed!</p>

<p>While I do not like prestige whores, I think you have a decent shot (as good as anyones except hooked applicants). I think the ESL to AP English is a good measure of your hard work and diligence. Also, I love the patent idea. You have good scores (1500 M+V) Though youre Korean translation contest means nothing- I mean c'mon (you're Korean) But still I wish you lots of luck!!</p>
