Chances for 5x Dartmouth legacy?

<p>Both my parents, my grandfather, and two of my dad's brothers attended and did very well at Dartmouth for their undergrad. My Dad also conducts admissions interviews for potential Dartmouth students, and has for several years, if that means anything.</p>

<p>Also, if you could chance me for Brown, Georgetown, Penn, Bowdoin, Williams, Mount Holyoke and Wellesley that would be awesome. <3</p>

<p>Objective:
SAT I (breakdown): 2170 (750 CR, 720 M, 700 W) (only time taking)
ACT: Didn’t take.
SAT II: 730 Bio E, 800 Lit, 650 USH. (I think I'll probably only send Bio and Lit ;))
Unweighted GPA (out of 4.0): I believe a 3.7 or so? I know it’s a 93 or a 94 unweighted and definitely the weakest part of my application, although I had absolutely excellent junior year grades. :(
Rank (percentile if rank is unavailable): School doesn’t rank.
AP (place score in parenthesis): Lit 5, Bio 4, Stats 4, USH 4.
Courses: Freshman Year: Honors English, Honors Spanish II, Chinese I, Honors Earth Science, Orchestra, Honors Algebra II, Geo/Civics. Sophomore: English II, Orchestra, Honors Chemistry, Honors Biology, Honors Precalculus, US History. Junior Year: AP Lit, Honors Spanish III, AP Biology, Anatomy/Physiology, AP Stats, APUSH. Senior Year: Honors Calculus, AP Language, AP Spanish IV, AP Human Geo, AP Comparative Government, Honors Physics.
Major Awards (USAMO, Intel etc.): AP Scholar with honor (I assume? I mean, I qualify according to the website...)</p>

<p>Subjective:
Extracurriculars (place leadership in parenthesis):
Varsity swim team (4 years,)
Math team (4 years),
Chamber Ensemble (1st violin, 4 years),
Musical Pit Band (1st violin, 10, 1st chair/concert mistress 11),
Fall Play (Student Director, 12),
Mock Trial (Founder/Captain, 11, 12),
Key Club (10, 11 [treasurer], 12),
NHS (11, 12 [president]),
Student Senate Representative (12),
Bapst International Family Alliance (A kind of club promoting interaction between international and American students at my school...our international program is new) (Founding Member, 10, 11, 12),
Student Life Committee (selected by dean of students to provide input on school life) (Founding Member, 10, 11, 12),
Ethical Leadership Seminar Facilitator (this program has selected older students give seminars on ethics to younger students. I personally think it’s very unique.) (Founding Member/Leader 10, 11, 12).
Host family for Chinese exchange student, 11, 12.
<em>My school also has a weird rule, because we are so small, that you cannot be president of multiple clubs, which is why I didn't go for president of Key Club in favor of president of NHS. Of course, I did found mock trial which is why I have grounds to be captain of that. ;)
*</em>Also, these are kind of varied but hopefully the leadership in almost all of them as well as the fact that I've founded quite a few will look good? I am very passionate about all of these; in fact, I'm only listing the ones I've participated in that I have passion for.</p>

<p>Job/Work Experience: 200+ hours sales associate at a gift shop.</p>

<p>Volunteer/Community service:
150+ hours unpaid internship/volunteering at my local theatre company. Doing lots of organization and work that usually would be done by an adult employee.
300+ hours volunteering at local hospital (200+ of those hours were spent as a manager (leader) of the volunteers),
50+ hours EqualityMaine (campaigning to legalize same-sex marriage.)</p>

<p>Summer Activities: Work and volunteering at the hospital 2011/2012. 2013: Jackson Lab Summer Student Program (very selective [5% acceptance rate] paid research fellowship. I am one of only 5 high school students in the program. I am also the youngest student in the program, though that probably means absolutely nothing.)</p>

<p>Essays: Contrary to my abysmal SAT score, I am a very strong writer and I have some extremely creative ideas so I expect these to be excellent.
Teacher Recommendation: I know one will be absolutely incredible and the other will be very strong.
Counselor Rec: I'm pretty worried about this, the guidance department at my school is weak. But I think my counselor likes me well enough?
Additional Rec: Perhaps the creative director at Penobscot Theatre.
Interview: I have very good interview skills and have succeeded in several in the past with flying colors.</p>

<p>Other
State (if domestic applicant): Maine
Country (if international applicant):
School Type: Private
Ethnicity: White
Gender: Female
Income Bracket: $100,000+
Hooks (URM, first generation college, etc.): legacy...</p>

<p>Thanks guys!! :)</p>

<p>Legacy typically only helps ED, but then again you have much stronger legacy connections than most students. I would say high match ED, low-mid reach otherwise. Getting your SAT over 2200, or even better over 2250, would really help your chances.</p>

<p>Brown: reach
Georgetown: low reach
Penn: reach
Bowdoin: don’t know a lot about
Williams: reach
Mount Holyoke: don’t know a lot about
Wellesley: don’t know a lot about</p>

<p>Chance me back?</p>

<p>I agree with the need to improve SAT. That’s a weaker point of the application then grades. Your ECs are fine. Since your income seems to allow it, if Dartmouth truly is your first choice I’d recommend ED. The legacy status will boost you the most here. As a word of caution, make sure YOU truly love dartmouth, and don’t just want to attend because of the family connections. Make sure it’s a right fit for you. </p>

<p>Brown: reach
Georgetown: low reach
Penn: reach
Bowdoin: low reach (helps if you don’t send in the SAT I)
Williams: high reach
Mount Holyoke: match
Wellesley: reach</p>

<p>Chance back at: <a href=“http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1518278-updated-chances-ivies-second-ivies-publics-will-chance-back.html[/url]”>http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/what-my-chances/1518278-updated-chances-ivies-second-ivies-publics-will-chance-back.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

<p>a few things. one, i may be wrong, but uncles do not count as legacy status. second, it doesn’t matter about attending or doing well there, graduating is the only thing that matters (i think). you still have great chances there, ED at dartmouth and you’re in</p>
