<p>GPA is still kind of low, what's your rank? Everything else seems pretty impressive. You'd have a good shot if your GPA was higher.</p>

<p>Our school doesn't rank. But mark wise, I might be 10/300</p>

<p>York Science Olympiad?
is that the event at York University? if it is, then it's not worth mentioning, you know it's pretty useless, mostly luck and the whole thing is chaotic and winning is based very little on intelligence (just a reminder, don't put trivial activities on apps)</p>

<p>i wish you best of luck, i think you deserve to get in :) (but too bad i am not an admission officer :(, b/c if i were, i would have gotten myself in :))</p>

<p>like newbyre said, we are not admin officers. But I think you will get in, your grades and EC are very solid. People in CC are always pessimistic!! just ignore them. good luck, it looks like Dartmouth is not your first choice anyway :o!</p>
