[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I friends of parents who have children who attend Deerfield and Brunswick Boy school. All I hear them talk about and discuss is Dartmouth and I would just like to know what is special about Dartmouth...all of them want their children to get in Dartmouth[/quote]

Nothing. It is easier to get in than lot of even public schools [/quote]

Actually, Dartmouth has the opposite problem. If you don't go to certain NYC privates or New England boarding schools, Dartmouth is pretty much an impossible admit, especially for accomplished public school students. My DC was considering Dartmouth for their ED app, but after looking at the data, decided Dartmouth would be a waste of an app. Goes to a higher ranked school today. If you don't go to one of the Dartmouth feeder high schools, it is a pointless application. Before applying, students should really look at their high school's track record with Dartmouth over the past four years. That will tell you what you need to know.[/quote]

From our VA top private Dartmouth is significantly easier in ED than the other ivies that have ED, and even easier than Duke and Northwestern in ED. It is also easier in RD than every ivy and other T15 but Cornell, deleting any recruited athletes from the mix. [/quote] VA and top private don’t belong in the same sentence. There are no top privates in VA, let alone VA privates where Dartmouth ED is easy.[/quote]
