<p>Hey, I really need to know if I have a good shot at Dartmouth ED. Since I can only apply to 8 colleges, I need to choose them wisely.</p>
<p>Nationality: Indian
Legacy: No
SAT I: CR - 660, Math - 800, Writing - 800 (1460, 2260)
SAT II: Math II - 800, Chemistry - 800
IB: 40/42, 38/42 (my predicted grade will be out in a month.. I'm expecting a 39 or 40)
ECs: Strong</p>
<p>Thanks so much!!</p>
<p>Are you Indian as in Native American or Indian from India?</p>
<p>your chances will be vastly different as Dartmouth is committed to the education of Native Americans (Indians) where as being from India you will be categorized as Asian (while the common ap does ask for the sub continent). The Asian pool of candidates will be extremely competitive.</p>
<p>She’s from India</p>
<p>
Sybbie, I can understand the affirmative action for Amercian Indian, but why will the Asian pool of candidates be extremely competitive? Is there a quota for Asians that you can not exceed?</p>
<p>No, there is not a quota for Asians but by the same token Asians are not underrepresented in the elite colleges or in the elite college admission pool. </p>
<p>However, in Op’s situation she is also an international student from India where there will be students in the international pool that will be coming with much stronger numbers for a limited number of spots.</p>
<p>In the class of 2011 there are 94 international students (8.4%) who have matriculated. The class of 2011 is 14.8% Asian.</p>
<p><a href=“This Page Has Moved”>This Page Has Moved;
<p>Do you have info regarding how many students from various countries applied (and how many per country), and how many actually got in from those countries?</p>
<p>My daughter’s green book is now 4 years old. However, any current Dartmouth freshman who just received a Green Book on move in day can look this information up for you. It is in the back of the book (where students are listed by geographic location).</p>
<p>Sybbie,
Schools like Dartmouth shoud be extremely competitive for EVERYONE! It is not right just for Asian Applicants. :)</p>
<p>Of couse the school is competitive for everyone regardless of race, not just asians. </p>
<p>Op stated that she is Indian. I was just trying to get clarification to her statement.</p>
<p>There are two students from India in the class of 2012. Four from Singapore. Six from various places within Hong Kong. Three from China. Seventeen (!) from Korea. And so forth.</p>
<p>Just 2 indians?! GOD
how many applied?
man, is it tougher than MIT for us? lol!</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Wow, I totally did NOT know that. This is pretty cool.</p>
<p>im Indian.. Indian citizen and Indian resident..
and yeah.. how many Indians applied?
Also, how many were accepted (not attending)</p>
<p>thanks for the help btw :)</p>
<p>Yeah, someone please post that.</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>Since there are only a handful of US colleges that are need-blind for internationals (I read on cc that there were only 8), yeah, it’s probably tougher.</p>
<p>btw: not sure if sybbie meant to suggest that the Green Book has the number of applicants from each country…it just lists the residence of the matriculants.</p>
<p>^^Yes, just matriculants. Doesn’t say how many applied, or how many were accepted and chose to go elsewhere.</p>
<p>for the class of 2012:</p>
