SAT Essay

Hello all,

I am applying to Dartmouth for ED and just sent in my October SAT with essay score (1510, 16). Since Dartmouth dropped the SAT/ACT essay requirement earlier this year, will they still consider my dismal essay score in the admissions process?

Thank you.

My child was admitted in ED with a 1530,18 last year. My understanding is that they do not pay much attention to the essay score. Any SAT score starting with high 1400’s is good enough - the other parts of your application will make the difference.
