2015-2016 Dartmouth College (Geisel) Application Thread

This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Rejected, complete 9/8. Such a bummer! Good luck to all you beans still in the running.
 
Rejected pre- II not a surprise. Good Luck all!
 
I've been complete since August, sorry to say even if I do get an interview I probably won't go because of finances and the Canadian season. So if I do get one, it'll be passed along! If I don't, status quo.
 
does anyone know when the majority of interviewed applicants will hear back?
 
noooooooooo 🙁 🙁.. that bites trini
Yeah... I have received a few this week so far. I like the closure, but it is really making me antsy for Friday when I learn my fate from my one interview.

wishing you the best of luck.. it's been one rejection a day for saturday, mon, tues and wed :/
 
Rejected today pre ii, definitely my top choice so I'm a bit disappointed but with a lower Lizzy score (69) I didn't expect much!

Complete August 25th
 
question for folks in the know: If you wanted to do the majority of your clinical rotations in the Hanover area, would you be able to? Or is part of the reason most students do the bulk of their rotations away because slots near the campus are limited? Moving with my partner to wherever I end up, and I wouldn't want to drag her to NH only to leave for a year...

The fourth year who gave our tour said he did ALL of his rotations in Hanover due to relationship considerations.

During our information session they also mentioned you may opt out of the lottery due to special circumstances (family, medical condition, etc) preventing travel to more distant clinical sites.

This is exactly what I was looking for, thank you!
 
II this morning. LizzyM 74. Complete 7/15. Have a full ride from another school, but Dartmouth was on the "dream schools" list. Not totally sure what to do, but grateful for the opportunity, at least. Thought it'd just be rejections this late in the game!!
Ahh so there is hope .... Congrats on your successes!

How much are your dreams worth?

I say go and see what happens.

Congratulations on both accounts and good luck at the interview. How does one manage to get a full ride to med school other than promising military service?
 
for those who have interviewed, what was your impression of Dartmouth?
 
Rejected, OOS, app complete 8/17
513 MCAT (11,10,14,10), 3.97 masters gpa, lower ugpa

A good run, even if it ended with a disappointing result. Ah well. Good luck to everyone else!
 
Finally let go this morning.. this was my absolute first choice last year even while riding the waitlist to the first day of class, but I guess no interview this year. Oddly, I'm not too upset-- just didn't like having to wait so long for this.
 
Have they sent out II to anyone complete in Sept or later?

Yes, but I'm 100% sure at this point that they're not going strictly in order lol I was complete a bit after Christmas and got an II in January, but several people complete in July and August have posted that they've received II's since then...
