<p>Doubtful given below avg (for Dartmouth) grades, test scores, rigor of curriculum (not your fault, but many Dartmputh applicants will have 20-plus intensified/honors/AP/IB courses), and ECs. Do not see anything here that would separate you from the other 90% of the applicants that Dartmouth will reject. Still, your chances are zero if you do not apply, but try some safeties also.</p>

<p>I agree: doubtful. What are your safeties and matches?</p>
