[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I’m the PP who is remembering or misremembering the conversation. The (possibly apocryphal) convo stuck with me bc due to some health issues and hospitalization, my own kid had a GPA that, relative to her scores, was on the low side, and that’s apparently atypical. Just did some searching and PPs are correct that Lee Coffin has said Dartmouth values scores, bc scores + grades give the fullest picture. (Maybe it wasn’t him?) If someone remembers what I’m remembering, I’d love to know. Otherwise all should ignore my comment bc I really can’t back it up. [/quote] I'm sorry about your child's health issues. I hope they are doing well now. Be sure she/he mentioned it in the common app section (and/or in counselor letter)--to give context to lower gpa relative to scores.[/quote]
