Dartmouth College (2023-2024)

[gritty berry]

yes but if you do haikus, make sure its in cursive and theres a background behind

[spice jungle]

@stark lark I'm curious, if you do interviews do you know what percent of students offered interviews actually do interview

[stark lark]

i don't do them anymore

can't with my job

but the large majority of those I contacted did it

[leaden pewter]

lol idk if i have that in me lol

i posted a similar variant to Brown

I will put it in here if I get in

[dull mist]

Is there any way the peer rec i wrote for my friend affecting my own application

[modern ruin]

I doubt it

[viscid perch]

I think my interview went bad.. will it affect my decision?

[modern ruin]

I doubt it

Prolly wont help though

[floral raptor]

bad in what way?

[viscid perch]

The interviewer feels a bit dismissive

Like he did the interview just to finish his task

[modern ruin]

Jus dont worry abt it hurting you

It cant hurt

If u were gonna get in this wouldnt change that

[viscid perch]

Hopefully that’s what’s going to happen

Fingers crossed

[brazen drift]

How do I submit the CSS Profile Waiver Request for the Noncustodial Parent?

[woeful hill]

mail them

[sudden marten]

Hmmm does taking tons of hard college class at a cc such likes calc and cs takes cover to being TO?

Whatever, college is too unpredictable ig. If students with 1500+ are not getting in then everything is a mystery

[terse sluice]

TO?

[viscid perch]

Test optional

[terse sluice]

oh

[terse sluice]

it definitely helps; especially if you don't have AP classes available to you

I submitted a 1450 to Dartmouth but my school average was triple digits, context is everything when it comes to submitting SAT/ACT

[silk hedge]

i submitted scores just bc i tried so damn hard on these tests it felt like a waste not to submit 😭

[sleek reef]

If I get into Dartmouth im going to visit the same day as the solar eclipse

[zinc shadow]

Do u guys know if ur allowed to do exchange programs at Dartmouth outside of ur major

Like if I get in I wanna do the Korea Yonsei university program but it says the major for that is Asian studies and I’m engineering

[terse sluice]

that is a good question, I'd like to know this as well

[stark lark]

Yes

they may give prioirty to majors/minors

but there isn't a firm rule on it

you don't declare until your 5th or 6th term, so you could do a program freshman ummer or sophomore year before you have a major

[terse sluice]

thanks for the info :)

[spice jungle]

dartmouth better be letting me in

[zinc shadow]

Praying 🙏

[modern ruin]

Do yall think a really good peer rec can make a significant impact on your application?

[stark lark]

Sure

[floral raptor]

its holistic so everything contributes

[mental hound]

Hello my fellow applicants

[terse sluice]

hi

[leaden pewter]

I'm so pumped

I have hope

also found a great song

it gives me Dartmouth vibes

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5LKCy1UQCXc

very folksy song

[terse sluice]

me too <3

best of luck to everyone :)

[marsh sundial]

[granite ether]

wwho the fuck tagged me five times

[last halo]

We were asking to dm us

[jaunty wing]

Any likely letters so far?

[stark lark]

Pretend they don't exist

[wintry mountain]

https://tenor.com/view/nicki-minaj-please-dont-play-with-me-rn-gif-19114898

[floral raptor]

wait seriously 💀

so basically piss them off by not submitting required documents to know if you got in earlier?

[neat elm]

they are need blind

so they probably won't care about the documents until decisions are made,

however, if you submit documents on time, you'll get the aid package with your decision

[stark lark]

Don't portal astrology. Yo uonly set yourself up for disappointment if you somehow convince yourself you got in and then don't geet in

[neat elm]

where is portal astrology here/

but i have to admit, dartmouth has the biggest portal astrologers

[stark lark]

right here.... #1135692152123441182 message

[neat elm]

ohh ok. I thought you meant my responses

[sudden marten]

Keyword "sign" must be banned hahaa

[edgy glen]

Yh

[bronze spoke]

Going test optional for Dartmouth be an L for me 😭

[edgy glen]

Yeah
But I just want to see how it goes
Get an early sign whether I am in or not, so that I can make appropriate plan to commit to another school before it actually comes out

[viscid perch]

You know the dartmouth astrology is just a shot in the dark right

[floral raptor]

no portal astrology guys!

Ivy Day Decision Date

Ivy Day decisions come out <t:1711666800:F> in your local time
19 days, 6 hours and 14 minutes until the decision date

ApplyingToCollege

[floral raptor]

in 19 days you'll know whether you're getting in or not :)

[edgy glen]

However it goes
No regret

[stark lark]

why would you commit before hearing?

[edgy glen]

To keep off my mind from it and protect my mental health even if rejected

[edgy glen]

I mean commit to other schools not Dartmouth

[stark lark]

right, that's my point. Why woudl you commit to a school before you have all your decisions/

[edgy glen]

Well it's better to put my mind to rest
Waiting is hard

[stark lark]

but it doesn't put it to rest...

[edgy glen]

Ànyways
That's my pref
Lets see how it goes

[sleek reef]

That would be NYU and berkely

[floral raptor]

lol why berkeley

[gritty berry]

i legit had to email them to submit my sat score cause i dont wanna risk it w to

[gritty berry]

nyu portal astrology is bs

honestly portal astrology is a waste of time and emotionally exhausting so why commit urself to that

[edgy glen]

Anyways it's just Dartmouth not the world
Anywho it goes, I have no regret

Maybe Sewanee
I love it so much
Haven't committed yet. But pretty committed by heart

[stray fjord]

Wait what additional financial aid docs does Dartmouth need

Is it just stuff in idoc?

[edgy glen]

Yes I think

But I haven't submitted any fin doc or CSS at all tho so it might just be different from everyone

[stark lark]

not that I know of

[oak sun]

Does Dartmouth even send out likelies?

Not that I expect one obviously-- but it's almost time up for them

Interesting

Has that happened to anybody or?

[terse sluice]

it is all just portal astrology; you can choose to believe it but I wouldn't

just wait less than 3 weeks and you'll see fr

[oak sun]

I was just curious lols I saw people on reddit who received fr likelies

[wintry mountain]

yes they asked me to send a picture of me mewing

this seems very portal astrology esque

and normally im a fan of that but i sincerely doubt it in this instance

[neat elm]

it is mentioned in dartmouth's website

[wintry mountain]

on god?

[oak sun]

I don't think that is what that means

https://admissions.dartmouth.edu/glossary-term/likely-letter

They will send a letter that specifically says either they will be admitting you to the class or that you can expect to recieve a favorable decisions on the 28th

What you sent just means that they CAN send a likely letter to applicants who do not have all the materials

[terse sluice]

yeah I feel like purposely not submitting things to see if they ask you for them as a way to see if you get a "likely" is desperate and pathetic and they probably do not appreciate that

[neat elm]

yeah, it is not going to affect the decision in any way

[oak sun]

Asking for more info is not in anyway a likely letter

[terse sluice]

yeah....

[oak sun]

What you sent actually specifically confirms that

[neat elm]

in some unofficial ways, it is

[terse sluice]

yes for like 1% edge cases

[oak sun]

If you are going to get a likely you are goign to get one regardless if you didn't submit the info according to what you sent

[terse sluice]

just forget about it, decisions are soon

[neat elm]

yes,

[oak sun]

fr

But I was just curious bc they are all coming out rn

Not necessarilly rn

Last week and this upcoming week

[neat elm]

what coming out?

[oak sun]

Likelies Columbia's came out last Thursday, Harvards came (or started to at least) out yesterday

[wintry mountain]

okay so you and that paragraph are saying two different things

thats saying you need to have all your stuff in to receive a likely letter

so if you had a request for info, and then you got a letter. thats a likely. but the request in itself isn’t a likely

There is a bot commands channel if yall wanna check to see if the date of Ivy Day changes (/s)

[spice jungle]

? whats the portal astrology lol

[floral raptor]

no portal astrology

[spice jungle]

i would never

[floral raptor]

you literally just did 😭

i know you're joking but im deleting that because i dont want people to read that out of context and start panicking

[spice jungle]

💀 ok

[modern ruin]

Petition to add portal astrology channel

[floral raptor]

not in this server

it only creates unnecessary panic and stress

also most of the time its wrong

the wait for decisions is hard, but it teaches you patience and when it finally comes out you know that its an actual decision instead of "speculations" based on a few changes in your portal

[terse sluice]

i dont get why that is so hard for some people to understand

if you are meant to get in, you will get in

[floral raptor]

yeah ^

[oak sun]

Well I mean uncertainty causes anxiety it’s just human nature

[terse sluice]

you're right, I am just as anxious about my admissions as anyone but I'm not going to go conspire and "look at the data" to prematurely predict whether I will be accepted or not

it will only make the denial a heavier hit or the acceptance joy dampened

it is just premature cope

[dense violet]

Fun fact there is a portal astrology channel but it's just a log of all the times it's mentioned on the server

💀

[modern ruin]

I was just kidding

Lol

[terse sluice]

Is it too late to add "Additional Admissions Material"? And would a new internship and a few BPA (Business Professionals of America) State Competition placements (a few 1st places among other placements) be substantial enough to warrant adding additional material?

[stark lark]

no harm, but likely too late for that to change much

[terse sluice]

yeah i sorta figured :) if i have extra time tn i might upload those details

[last halo]

w bpa

wasnt slc like last month why so late

[terse sluice]

Michigan SLC was this past weekend for me

[last halo]

oh

are u going to nlc

[terse sluice]

yea

[last halo]

gl

what event u doing

[terse sluice]

thanks u 2 (?)

[last halo]

i got 2nd in state for banking finance plus others but im not going

no point tbh

[terse sluice]

yeah i mean i cant use placements from it on anything but ive never been to chicago and all my friends are going, no reason not to imo

[floral raptor]

yeah my friend used inspect element or something for the uchicgo portal and saw a congratulations gif or something and thought they got in but then they got rejected 💀 they probably loaded both acceptance and rejected data

that was so sad

[viscid perch]

ok that is sad fr

[floral raptor]

yeah but like they brought it upon themselves so 😭

[viscid perch]

how do you even

i know nothing abt CS but

ok

[agile bloom]

im so sorry but this is so funny

like that's awful but

[gritty berry]

nah u immediately got accepted after submitting so an interview is redundant

[stark lark]

no

[sudden marten]

Can't convince an a2c member that no interview means its fine

[acoustic badge]

na bro he cooked not you

[terse sluice]

yeah you are so cooked that you wont even get into your safeties, not even community college will accept you

[neat elm]

just sent an update mentioning my new project at the internship i've been doing

will they even consider?

[stark lark]

maybe, but something like that is unlikely to really change much

[neat elm]

ohh. was thinking the same. whether i should send or not.

[stark lark]

no harm in sending

[neat elm]

it doesn't do any harm though, right?

[neat elm]

ohh ok

[golden kite]

I got an admissions update and it’s titled unlikely letter, I’m in right?

[jaunty wing]

i love spreading misinformation

[gritty berry]

Big green is Usamo a strong update (I’m not Usamo)

Usamo qual senior year *

which announced a week ago

[terse sluice]

I know some schools (namely those part of STARS) strive for geographic diversity; has Dartmouth tried to reach out to rural areas like those part of STARS?

just wondering as a student from a very rural area; as everyone else, I am nervous as all hell 🤣

[stark lark]

Dartmouth has kids from all over. I knwe people from farms in SD, nowhere Canada, Rwanda, all over New England

[marsh sundial]

Reminder, no astrology

[sudden marten]

Oh dang, would they love taking someone from Las Vegas haha

I would teach them how to gamble instead

[stark lark]

i would imagine thre are kids from vegas most years

i was stupid and EA'd princeton

ughhh

[agile bloom]

SAME

did u get deferred or reject

[terse sluice]

complete reject 😢

[agile bloom]

cough i mean yield protected

no same dw

[terse sluice]

😉

[agile bloom]

and i was getting recruited athletically. LOl

[terse sluice]

damn, yeah it was a shock; i thought i was hot shit but it woke me up XD

[agile bloom]

nah dw this has been real humbling for me too

i think a lot of ppl r experiencing the unexpected

[terse sluice]

to be fair, for my very rural area i am very exceptional, and that is all i knew when i appliued

[agile bloom]

but its a good life lesson i guess

[terse sluice]

it definitely is

[agile bloom]

no so valid

[terse sluice]

and i am actually happy i got rejected

i truly feel Dartmouth is for me, no where else aligns so closely with my ideal college; but gotta get accepted first :)

[agile bloom]

i think it's a bit good i did too, it made me learn to realllly appreciate the acceptances i get

[terse sluice]

yup

[stark lark]

dartmouth was literally my #1. I applied nowhere else

[terse sluice]

yeah once i learned about dartmouth i didnt even wanna apply anywhere else 🤣; although prior to that i applied to a few safeties + UMich because im in state

and im glad I applied to UMich because i have CSE there on the table if im not accepted to Dart

so we all covered 😎

[agile bloom]

no thats awesome ur def set

mich is awesome regardless

[terse sluice]

yeah what is funny is that i didnt even want to apply and barely tried on my app and in hindsight idk why i was so foolish

for some reason didnt hold mich to a high regard

[hazy jackal]

[crimson spade]

My friend and I were researching this at lunch!! There’s so many snow sports it looks so fun

[fallen grail]

[hazy jackal]

biggreen do u think it'd be possible to take a motorcycle to dartmouth

[crimson spade]

That’s pretty good!!

[elfin juniper]

what else is in dartmouth besides the woods

[crimson spade]

Skiing is so fun I’m so sad I missed out this year

[crimson spade]

Snow

[hazy jackal]

i think everyone gets hurt their first time when they ski or snowboard

i got bruised up the first time i snowboarded

[terse sluice]

yeah i live far up north so i love the snow

[crimson spade]

There’s no way you don’t fall at least once

[torn root]

does dartmouth waitlist

[terse sluice]

id love to learn to snowboard

[stark lark]

all kinds of cultural and sports stuff

[torn root]

or is just reject or accepted

[crimson spade]

I don’t think I got hurt hurt but I was very sore

[hazy jackal]

yeah ik what u mean

[stark lark]

first years can't have cars, and I think that includes motorcycles?

[elfin juniper]

lucky ive never gotten snow here in la 💔

[crimson spade]

I have to go to Tahoe to ski

[stark lark]

yeah

[crimson spade]

3 hr drive

[stark lark]

but normally they don't really take anyone

[agile bloom]

i am in new england pretty mcuh almost so skiing is accessible it's nice

[terse sluice]

what about canoeing, i went once this summer and loved it and would love to do it more

[torn root]

ah gotcha

[hazy jackal]

nah but afterwards did u ever see them on campus or was it just not present because its cold a couple weeks after the term starts

[stark lark]

the canoe club does more kayaking than canoeing, but you can def canoe

[terse sluice]

SWEET

[stark lark]

there i a big culture in NH, but not amongst students

[hazy jackal]

i see i asked my interviewer the same question she said it would be cool to bring one during sophomore summer

[stark lark]

yeah, need somewhere to park it though

[bright gulch]

is there za culture at darty

[hexed canopy]

i don’t think nh is known for their pizzas

[terse sluice]

i think nh is known for lobster rolls

only ever had Maine lobster rolls and mmmmmm theyve always been so so good

idk the difference

[stark lark]

couple ok places in town

[stark lark]

more maine and MA

NH only has 13 miles of coast

[terse sluice]

oh lol

i just ate at a seafood place and they offered Maine style and New Hampshire style lobster rolls and I ordered the Maine style because I lived there for sometime when i was young

maybe they arent a huge thing and it was just that restaurant

or wait

no

i think it was connecticut oops

idk

[agile bloom]

maine lobstah>>>>>>>

my home

[thorn moon]

is it true that students can keep their guns on campus w DOSS?

i heard NH is really 2a friendly

[elfin juniper]

yo what

is there a deer hunting club or something

[thorn moon]

no clue

thats why im asking haha

[terse sluice]

that would def be a bonus

would love to go hunting in NH although like all the species are the same as where i am from in michigan

[thorn moon]

yeah fr

[thorn moon]

if anyone could confirm/deny this thatd be great

[stark lark]

yes

[stark lark]

yes, Bait and Bullet is hunting, shooting, and fishing

[thorn moon]

alr thx

[terse sluice]

dope

[stark lark]

it's part of the DOC

[wintry mountain]

on god

scared of debt though 😭

[crimson spade]

Valid

[wintry mountain]

i think the debt would have been worth it for the ski resort

[stark lark]

did you run the NPC?

[wintry mountain]

yeah, pretty much the same as my instate flagship. EDing just wasn't super financially viable anywhere, i needa shop around lmfao

my school actively tries everything in their power to stop people from EDing as well 💀

[thorn moon]

low key i’m fine with debt if i get to go to an ivy

maybe that’s just me

[stark lark]

it's about the amount

300k

no way

that's crippling

[crimson spade]

My friend is taking on 360k for northeastern 😭

[stark lark]

that's insane.

[crimson spade]

Dartmouth plssss

Nvm Im getting crazy

[last halo]

thats mean

[thorn moon]

👍🏻

for the greater good

[terse sluice]

yeah according the aid calc dartmouth would be cheaper than all my in state schools

which is amazing

still costs enough to where with no scholarships outside of the finaid it'd nearly be 6 figures, but I think I'll be alright; that is really good compared to my other options

they consider the level of applicants interest according to their cds but that might just be specifically to see who went to their fly ins like bound/ifi tbh cuz they say they dont on their website

UMich for a Campus Day, I guess it is a CoE focused tour + CSE dept meeting; the other is for a really small school - Albion College

only reason I'm touring Albion is because I have a full ride offer from them

[terse sluice]

thank you for this ❤️

[slender terrace]

you got into umich?

[terse sluice]

yes was accepted advance selection cse

[slender terrace]

nice nice

what is advance selection cse tho?

[terse sluice]

they limit the number of students in their computer science program so advance selection is just when you apply into cs alongside your UMich app

CSE is just "Computer Science Engineering"

it is CS through their CoE

[slender terrace]

ahh ok

btw were u in state?

[terse sluice]

yes i was :)

def helped my app

[slender terrace]

ayee congrats tho

[stark lark]

cool, full ride is a good deal

I really want to visit UMich, my dad is actually at a program there right now, but I won't get out there bfore he's finished

[old halo]

my mental state rn

[modern ruin]

its def too late to send additional material right

doing scholarship stuff and finding a scary amount of stuff i probably shouldve sent to my colleges

[terse sluice]

am in the same boat 😬

[terse sluice]

as per what biggreen said when i asked a week or two ago he said it wouldnt hurt but likely wouldnt help

[modern ruin]

idk its not like crazy just an extra resume highlighting just how much community service i did for my town may help put things into perspective alot

like the common app extracurricular section only got liek 100 characters

and my essay talking abt the ec im referencing talks more abt the why and could touch on more of the what

idk

hopefully they get it

[stark lark]

You really seem to want to focus in undergrad, and those focuses are things Dartmouth doesn't have. You'd major in biology or geography (or a modified major or something)

[marble charm]

I’m just talking in general, not about my major

[stark lark]

I mean, isn't that an important consideration

[marble charm]

That’s definitely true

How are dartmouths “modified majors” different from minors or concentrations?

[stark lark]

It basically combined two subjects into one major

So smaller than major plus minor

[marble charm]

Ohh I gotcha

what do you need that for, if you don't mind me asking?

[stiff oxide]

prob CSS

[mossy pulsar]

what’s css?

[mossy pulsar]

my school college counselor is asking for it so he can advocate for me to the school

which he does for all 30 students from m school that applied

it does literally nothing (he did it for Umich when 55 people applied)

[gritty berry]

isnt it too late

[mossy pulsar]

but he still sent an email asking

so do i just reply that there isn’t an ID?

Can you still get accepted to Dartmouth if you don’t turn in financial aid documents in time

[elfin juniper]

how are we holding up until ivy day yall

[silk hedge]

Kinda hype ngl

[zealous grail]

Yea
They jus might delay your fin aid package

Northing else will happen

[terse sluice]

what's your GPA and sat if you don't mind me asking; mine was 4.0UW (no W) and 1450

[modern ruin]

4.22 (3.75 ish on 4.0 scale) and a 1460

sat is highly skewed, 780 math 680 reading

[terse sluice]

780 math is super strong

Idk I couldn't find consistent numbers but the median @ Dartmouth is like 1440-1460

So I mean 2nd quartile isn't the worst spot to be

[gritty berry]

bruh what

median is 1500+

[terse sluice]

I think they may appreciate submitting scores in that area; especially in lieu of their recent study showing some people would have been accepted if they had submitted scores

[terse sluice]

not a single resource I saw said that

[hexed canopy]

TO distorts the median

[gritty berry]

tru

[terse sluice]

In fact most were mid to low 1400s from what I saw

[terse sluice]

heavily

[gritty berry]

does a 1600 help if i have meh grades

[terse sluice]

that's why I think they may appreciate submitting scores, even if below median

[terse sluice]

Define "meh"

[gritty berry]

3.5 uw 4.2w

[terse sluice]

I think that's fine

[gritty berry]

hopefully

[terse sluice]

Especially with a 1600 and if you had rigorous classes

[gritty berry]

i didnt get interviewed any where except harvard pton and penn

[terse sluice]

well that doesn't mean a whole lot, availability based

[stark lark]

doesn't mean anything

[stark lark]

exactly

[gritty berry]

ppl from my school got them from other schools

[terse sluice]

availability based it don't mean anything

[gritty berry]

im certain intl get prescreened lmfao

[terse sluice]

you'll know in less than a week

[gritty berry]

ik

[stark lark]

at least at Dartmouth this isn't the case

i have been the volunteer in charge of assigning interviews

[gritty berry]

oh shi

[stark lark]

nobody once told me to make sure this person gets one or ignore that person

[gritty berry]

thats cool

[gritty berry]

🫡

big green would u say it is harder to get in to top colleges today than it was in the psat

past

[stark lark]

to some extent yes

but not as much as admit rates make it look

[wild path]

it's nice to hear from the horse's mouth that interviews are actually based off availability

so thank you!

i know it causes a lot of stress when people don't receive interviews from everywhere they apply

[sudden marten]

Is applying on early decision and being deferred demonstrate interest :D?

[obtuse pewter]

early decision is pretty heavy demonstrated interest

[wild path]

dartmouth doesn't really track demonstrated interest anyway (i don't think)

but applying ED is the best thing you can do

[obtuse pewter]

i was told they track demonstrated interest pretty heavily

by my regional AO

[sudden marten]

Oooh okiee

[wild path]

really?

https://admissions.dartmouth.edu/glossary-question/does-it-improve-my-chances-if-i-demonstrate-interest-visiting-calling-emailing

[obtuse pewter]

@sudden marten has the same AO too

[sudden marten]

How?

[obtuse pewter]

oh

[sudden marten]

Oh

[obtuse pewter]

we're the same region man

[obtuse pewter]

shoot was i mixing it up with another AO?

[sudden marten]

yea forgot lol

[obtuse pewter]

applicant interest is considered on the CDS

[sudden marten]

Yea perhaps, being in early decision might carry lol. But still around 5 - 10% of deferred applicants are admitted

[obtuse pewter]

i don't have as much DI as someone who ED'd

i did however attend a couple of sessions and talk to my AO in person

[wild path]

i always assumed it was just them telling us there was en edge to applying ED beacuse their website explicitly says they don't track visits, communications, etc.

[obtuse pewter]

yeah that's what i'm assuming

[stark lark]

CDS iss more... guidelines

[obtuse pewter]

ohhh gotcha

so they don't gaf about visits or none of that then

[sonic epoch]

Are you gonna be on this thread during Ivy Day?

[obtuse pewter]

my interviewer was lit

he kept it real with me

[stark lark]

thursday? for a bit, i have a hockey game

[stark lark]

i miss interviewing 😦

[obtuse pewter]

he dropped a couple s and f bombs too which was funny af

but he kept it real w/ me

[obtuse pewter]

awwwww

like he did a good job convincing me that i wanted to go

the only hard parts now is getting in and paying for it

[sudden marten]

Ooh I really wished I got interviewed, I'll spew too much philosophy stuff on them :C

[obtuse pewter]

my interview was super last minute @sudden marten

i think they were barely considering interviewing me

[modern ruin]

Fr I would have killed an interview

Its like my strength 🥲

[obtuse pewter]

i thought darty interviews were random though

or availability based

[stark lark]

yeah, by availability

[sudden marten]

they are right?

[stark lark]

yes

[sudden marten]

that sounded like interviews are for admitted students ahhahaa

[obtuse pewter]

@sudden marten didn't get one and he was ED --> RD and i got one i was just RD but we're literally 10 miles from each other

[sudden marten]

Truueee

[obtuse pewter]

i think our schools r like 3 miles apart

i don't know how that happened

[sudden marten]

Idk but Ill see to it for the next week ahaha

[obtuse pewter]

you're chilling bro we gonna be roomies 🤜 💥 🤛

[sudden marten]

As we should!!😎 🤝 😎

[obtuse pewter]

the AO is fire though

hopefully she liked me

the interviewer was fire too

and my peer rec was fire fingers crossed

[sudden marten]

you manage to look on your peer rec? That's cool lol my friend said its confidential and won't let me see it

[stark lark]

my friend wouldn't show me it until i had a dcision

[sudden marten]

Aah for surpises I see

[obtuse pewter]

wait huh

dartmouth sent me an email showing it LMFAO

[sudden marten]

Bruh, I think your friend listed the peer recommender's email as yours

[obtuse pewter]

LOL

that sounds like something he would do goofy ass mf

oh well it's cool i liked it

he was very real w/ the adcoms and i appreciated that

although he wasn't the most eloquent he just put thoughts on paper that's what i wanted

[sudden marten]

Being genuine is what Dartmouth likes for a peer rec 😉

[obtuse pewter]

he talked about our experiences at conferences

lowkey bro im scared for this decision

this one i want bad

[spice jungle]

does darty actually care about peer recs

?

[gritty berry]

my guess is it's for fly ins

[sudden marten]

It says recommended

[obtuse pewter]

bro i shoulda tried bound

[sudden marten]

and not only that, I saw they had magazines where they place all of our peer recs

[gritty berry]

dartmouth bound and ifi have an insane ed acceptance rate

[sudden marten]

True

[gritty berry]

everyone ik who did bound/ifi and ed dartmouth got in

[stark lark]

100%

[gritty berry]

i also heard it's like flagged on your application if you went

which is where im assuming the demonstrated interest is tracked

[stark lark]

i mean, that makes sense. Those are basically prescreening

[spice jungle]

i wonder what % of applicants do the peer rec 🤔

[obtuse pewter]

i believe there's a spot to put if you went

bro i shoulda done bound the homie from my school who did it ended up committing columbia ED on their flyin

[gritty berry]

you can for fee waivers but they flag it in their system i heard

[obtuse pewter]

oh

[gritty berry]

this is just anecdotal from what a friend told me but like id believe it

[obtuse pewter]

so he aint even apply darty

[sudden marten]

I wasn't interested in going to top colleges a year ago so I didn't do any bound 💀

[obtuse pewter]

if it helps my app at all i do have the highest GPA and ACT from anyone applying darty at my school by a large margin but idk if that's gonna do anything

[gritty berry]

a lot of people do ngl

[sudden marten]

Yeaaa, in terms of academics. Everyone is just the same

Its the essay that differentiate us

[obtuse pewter]

yk i couldn't quite figure out my dartmouth essays i thought they were OK

[gritty berry]

their only shown sat average is pre test optional

so its probably around the other ivies test optional id guess

[obtuse pewter]

i thought i wrote them well but i couldn't get them to be outstanding

i couldn't figure out what would get it to that next level

[sudden marten]

But, if they do show the average, it would be inflated as students don't go optional if they have 1500+

[gritty berry]

probably if i had to guess

[spice jungle]

this is true for one person from every school that has a student who applies. (not the large margin part but just a margin)

[obtuse pewter]

shoot you right

[gritty berry]

i got rejected from williams 😔

[spice jungle]

i got deferred -> waitlisted why is williams like my situationship smh

[sudden marten]

Yeaa, I'm incoming valedictorian, but as well as other applicants who are valedictorians as well 💀

https://apply.dartmouth.edu/register/findyouradmissionscounselor

who comes up?

[hexed canopy]

“A team of admissions officers”

[stark lark]

hmpf

[obtuse pewter]

LOL

[stark lark]

interesting

it is also possible that the AO for that region is new so thewy are giving extra support or something

or the person left so they are covering on an interim basis

[hexed canopy]

ohh makes sense

[stark lark]

i dunno any HS in South Carolina, but look up something in charleston or something

[hexed canopy]

[stark lark]

yeah, team

i bet whoever covered it is either new or left
