<p>Possible ED- can't decide between Prince, Harvard, Columbia, and Dartmouth- I like all of the schools for different reasons- but If I were to RD would I have a good chance? What about ED? I don't really want to choose which of the four I want to ED to until I know for sure which one I have the best chance of being admited to. Thanks!</p>

<p>Ignore the freakin title, I was talkin' to a friend who was discussing Brown with me, sorry!!!</p>

<p>Play up debate and you've got a very strong shot.</p>

<p>I'd say you're almost guaranteed considering you went to USAMO. My friend, a math genius, got into MIT, Caltech, and all these other places with a 3.1 GPA and USAMO. I'm not sure if people on these boards know just how strong USAMO is...considering I doubt anyone at Dartmouth is really that talented at math.</p>

<p>My question is: Why aren't you applying to Harvard, Yale, or Princeton?</p>

5

<p>He (or she) is applying to Harvard. I just read his separate posting on their board.</p>

6

<p>What is USAMO?</p>

7

<p>United States of America Mathematics Olympiad- basically you pass the AMC12 and then pass the AIME (by far the hardest math tests I've ever taken), and you compete(very rough outline of what you gotta do :P)</p>

<p>Actually, talking up ur debate will do you little good. There's no DDI for L-D, and go talk to Ken Strange - they do policy debate, not L-D at Dartmouth...</p>
