What are the disadvantages to Dartmouth?

<p>What have you not liked about your Dartmouth experience and why? Any advice would be greatly appreciated.</p>

<p>Thank you so much!</p>

<p>From DD’s friends who went to Dartmouth- It is very Greek and very Party-centric. I guess it works for DD’s friends, but not her scene at all.</p>

<p>It snowed today.</p>

<p>Also, it’s the smallest of the ivies…that could be a good or bad thing.</p>

<p>D-Plan (quarter-based) means twice as many exams as semester-based schools… :)</p>

<p>I honestly think Dartmouth is a great school. But I wish it were closer to a major urban centre. Some of the things I don’t like about Dartmouth (which I don’t necessarily regard as disadvantages – I’m just not very athletic or a fan of Greek life, but these are big and good things for most people here) would be less issues for me if there were more recreational options besides sports and fraternities/sororities.</p>

<p>Also, the weather.</p>
