This forum made possible through the generous support of SDN members, donors, and sponsors. Thank you.
Idk why i havent been rejected yet. Well worthy adversaries have already been rejected from here including my 520 4.0 friends.
I’ve heard Dartmouth doesn’t quite value perfect grades/MCAT as much as who they glean you to be from your essays and LORs though. I think their matriculant stats reflect that too. You may be a perfect candidate!

apparently what I’ve gathered is they’ll admit people they really love right off the bat. Like you’ll hear back within 1 month.

then they’ll make a threshold of a score to be “accepted” based on all the apps they’ve seen. Then you’ll see a whole bunch of people get in in March if they’re at or above that score they assigned each application. The people who got in earlier were probably going to be way above that score to begin with so they got As earlier.

Yes, that's what they said during the interview. This approach contributes to their super low retention rate.

Everything I have gathered about this school seems to suggest they really don't care too much about the "prideful" metrics other schools value. Which is honestly really attractive and I suggest they airlift the school to a beach or anywhere other than the remote NE regions. I'll throw myself at them the moment it happens.
