<p>Hi I've recently been waitlisted at Dartmouth. Therefore I got a teacher recommendation as well as my high school principal to write me a recommendation. My principal's recommendation was AMAZING... How does that help my Dartmouth waitlist application?</p>

<p>Additional Details
On a scale of 1-10, 1 being the worst, 10 being the best...

<p>I'm interested in Engineering; however, there wasn't anywhere you could choose, it was just a general application</p>

<p>So my question is how helpful is an AMAZING principal's recommendation?</p>
