<p>Hi!! I recently fell in love with Dartmouth so I wanted to see what my chances were of getting in ED!</p>

<p>my high school doesn't rank, but I am well within the top 10%, probably within the top 5% of a class of about 300 kids. My high school is extremely well known as being a very tough high school academic wise. I have a 99 weighted gpa, 97 unweighted and that is taking all honors/APs. </p>

<p>I got a 5 on the world history AP and 4s on AP english language and AP us history. </p>

<p>Senior year i am taking AP Calc, AP Physics, Ap macroeconomics and college spanish (my school doesn't offer AP spanish).</p>

<p>my act score is a 33 and my SAT scores aren't good composite but i have a 750 on the math and I am looking to go into the sciences, specifically engineering. </p>

<p>My college essay is great and my teacher recs will be amazing.</p>

<p>EC wise, im on the varsity volleyball team and I've been on the varsity golf team since freshman year and I am going to be captain this year. I am also editor of the school newspaper and a member of the spanish club. Outside of school, I volunteer every saturday during the fall and spring helping special needs kids play soccer; I have done this for 4 years. </p>

<p>other extra things: im in the highest band at my school, I teach trombone to elementary students, I train girls at volleyball, I am the coach of a 5th grade CYO volleyball team, and every summer I volunteer at vacation bible school.</p>

<p>what are my chances at getting into Dartmouth ED? i dont know if dartmouth is need blind, but I wont be needing financial aid, will that increase my chances?</p>

<p>Your ACT is good, but believe it or not for Dartmouth that isn’t outstanding. Are you retaking it? If you got like a 35 I’d say you were solid. Your EC’s are good especially because they like the athletes. Take the SAT II math so you can just submit that rather than having to submit a bad SAT I for just one section. Absolutely kill the essays. For the ivys, who you are personally will make or break you. Think to yourself about a story you can tell that no one else will and that will leave the reader with his/her jaw dropped. GPA is on par too. Otherwise your application is really good. Good luck!
