chance me...sorry

Colleges and Universities A-Z Dartmouth College
1

<p>GPA: 3.6
(this is due from taking one honors class and getting a B+ freshman year, to all but one honors and getting mostly As and a B+ and a B, to junior year taking all honors except for math and an AP (only 1 AP is offered) and getting straight As, so freshman year screwed over my GPA)
-senior year i am taking 4 APs and 1 honors (cant take it AP) and one standard
-what has brought my GPA down every year is math, (B+ every year), but As in everything else</p>

<p>SAT: 2140 (taking it again), probably end up in hte 2200s after I raise math and crit reading</p>

<p>writing: 790
math: 650
crit reading: 700</p>

<p>-have done tons of community service, volunteering with disabled kids for 4 years twice a week, traveled to Guatemala twice on missions trips
-cochairing an international interfaith conference at a college, leadership within interfaith
-secretary of class for 3 years
-ridden horses since I was 6, competed all over northeast
-soccer for 3 years, track for 2
-work as research assistant developing biodegradable stent since October, will continue through senior year

<p>I am a legacy, both my parents went to Dartmouth.

<p>My recs should be really good, as well as my essays</p>

<p>sorry....yet another chance me..</p>

<p>Your scores and GPA simply isn’t high enough for Dartmouth. And your ECs are strong, but nothing phenomenal or mind-blowing. If anything, you’ll be accepted through legacy. I don’t know how much Dartmouth weighs legacies, but seeing how both your parents went there, you should have a strong shot.</p>

<p>You also should’ve taken SAT II exams. I’m pretty sure Dartmouth requires 2?</p>

<p>I don’t know… maybe the legacy will help you but your GPA seems a bit low… again you’ll be against very competitive people with very competitive GPA’s. your SAT’s look good though if you can raise them to the 2200’s.</p>
