<p>bumppppppppp</p>

3

<p>pretty good chances; being from FL might help.
Also, how did you like summer@brown? I did that this year and loved it.</p>

4

<p>Rank looks good.
Courseload looks challenging.
SAT's are lackluster. Try getting high 2200's / low 2300's if at all possible.
Your EC's looks strong, just make sure you put EVERYTHING in the best possible light.</p>

5

<p>colinization: i LOVED summer@brown, wish i could have gone for more than a week. and does being from FL really help? i heard it was a disadvantage.</p>

<p>oh i forgot to add that i go to a large public school where only 2 people have ever gone to an ivy league school.</p>

6

<p>Then any chance you could be the valedictorian?</p>

7

<p>nopeee. there is no chance of moving up 3 spots becuase i don't even have a whole semester before i apply ED, so the ranks won't change before first semester ends.</p>

8

<p>I asked because if only two kids have been taken, I'd presume that these kids were val/sal. It all looks really good. Ofc, while chances are always low, there is nothing that is glaringly limiting you. Best of luck. (If you think you can raise the SAT to the 2250 threshold in October, I think you should take it, if not rest easy, and work on your application)</p>

9

<p>I just know that schools like to collect all 50 states and I would imagine there aren't many Floridians applying to Dartmouth. I may be wrong.</p>

10

<p>There are definitely enough Floridians on campus...</p>

<p>You look good. Not a sure bet, but you definitely are in the hunt.</p>

11

<p>ok, thanks for the input so far. anyone else?</p>

12

<p>I think you have a really good chance. I got in last year with similiar grades, slightly better sats, and much less ecs.</p>

13

<p>Impressive stats. You have a lot of accomplishments to be proud of, and I think your chances are good. Florida, woooooot</p>

14

<p>I think that you'll get in</p>
