My response to the 2nd secondary essay is 250,000 characters long and I think that's fine since there's no character limit but does anyone have advice on if I should pare it down a bit anyway? Thanks

Dont sell yourself short. If you've got something to say then feel free to say it. Infinite Jest was approximately 2.7 million characters without spaces. I think you can do better.

I haven't received a secondary from Geisel, and my AMCAS was verified on July 13th. I have a 3.94 GPA and a 511 MCAT. Not sure why I didn't receive it yet
 
Hey everyone. Would anybody be kind enough to share what the topic they discussed for essay 2 (please share with us something about yourself that was not addressed elsewhere...) What did you yall talk about?

I actually did a Why Us essay. I'm not sure if that's what they expect, but this school is my top choice, and I wanted to express that!

As long as it’s about you, your goals, aspirations, etc. and how they meet Dartmouth’s environment and mission, I don’t see why it would be a problem. But still a bit unconventional

I would contact them because I got a secondary the day I was verified. It didn't seem like they screened. Couldn't hurt to ask.
 
Hi everyone! Wondering if anyone had heard anything this week
Radio silence for me, marked complete 7/12 and re-submitted 7/19 after the missing third question

Does anyone know how many interviews they give out since their class size is so small?
 
Anyone hear any II's for people with complete dates around 7/25?

For those who already interviewed, did you get the names of your interviewers beforehand?

Yes, only the day before your interview when they email out the zoom links/interview day schedules.

Just got an II!! This is my third time applying to this school so I did not see this coming but I am beyond thrilled as it has always been a top choice!! If anyone who has already interviewed has any advice or resources they used it would be much appreciated!

LM 66, technically OOS but lived in NH for many years and now live in Mass, plus still have family and strong connections to the state.

I was completed on 7/14 but I got the whole technical error thing on 7/23 about a missing question. However, the email said this did not affect completion date
