<p>you have a chance if you apply.</p>

<p>so go for it, what’s the big deal? if you would like to go to dartmouth, then there’s definitely a chance of you getting in - your scores are fine, and, while your EC’s aren’t as impressive as they possibly could be, nobody’s perfect. your bro was an '05, so that might help. You’re not an automatic reject.</p>

<p>nobody knows what anyone’s true “chances” are, and if they claim to, you shouldn’t listen to them. apply if you want to go to the school, and if you don’t, save your money.</p>
