<p>I am quite close with my twin and she seems enthusiastic about writing a peer evaluation for Dartmouth. I do not mind this because she is an eloquent writer and would likely write a better review than my friends would.</p>
<p>Is this ill-advised or peculiar? Does it even matter? I appreciate your advice and I apologize for a trivial thread. :)</p>
<p>So, this is not unusual? </p>

<p>Seems pretty straightforward:</p>
<p>[Peer</a> Evaluation](<a href=“Home | Dartmouth Admissions ”>Home | Dartmouth Admissions )</p>

Who should write my Peer Reference?
The author of your peer reference should be, literally, a peer. Beyond that, there are no rules. It might be a friend from school, a team on which you play, a club to which you belong, from your neighborhood, from camp, from your community of faith, from a summer program you attended or an internship or job you have or had; it could even be a cousin or sibling . The specific nature of your connection to the author isn’t as important as his/her ability to provide insight into your interests and your character.

<p>Does it say that family can’t be a peer reviewer?</p>
<p>The website clearly states that a sibling or another relative CAN write your Peer Evaluation. They also don’t care about eloquence.</p>
<p>If what babyaztec is saying is true, then it shouldn’t be an issue.</p>
<p>Thank you for your comments! It is a non-issue and I was merely curious.</p>
