<p>1320/1600 SAT confirmed by a 29 ACT is too low for Dartmouth College without a significant hook such as being a Native American or a published award winner. You are a strong match for Colgate University if you intend to study finance. The Univ. of Richmond is also worth your consideration. Assuming a score of 5 on the upcoming Statistics AP may give you a surprise as I know several "A" students who scored "3" and "2" on AP Statistics.</p>
