There's no BS/MD at dartmouth, but it does have very impressive med school placement rates. If you're set on the BS/MD route though, try Brown or BU. Though for either of those raising your test scores will probably be required. Also since you didn't post a GPA I'll assume it's high.

But personally, I'd explore other options than just BS/MD options

If you can get into the BS/MD program at Brown, then you could get into a better medical school than Brown if you came to Dartmouth.

I don't think I can get into Brown with the mediocre SAT scores I have,,, also I'm not "unique"; Ivy Leagues look for uniqueness in students that apply, for example, winner of the Math Olympiad, gold medal at National Badminton Competition, or First prize winner of Russia's Chemistry Competition,,,,

yeah I don't have anything unique,,,,,,lol I guess I'll always be an average student lol

any chances for Dartmouth's biology program? lol

The bio program is just part of the college, which is all one college. So you'll just apply there, and if accepted, don't actually declare a major until part way through sophomore year.
