I think you have a great shot. This may seem cliche, but on your essays you have to try to stand out and not be typical like most applicants( show your passion ) ,because so many have around the same grades as you. I'm no guru or expert, but try to find someone good to proofread your essays. My older brother had one of his essays read by another counselor who was his counselors friend so yeah.. EA helps a lot too since the admit rate is higher

Dude, just make one chance thread in the "what are my chances" forum instead of spamming the same thing in a bunch of ivy forums.

Dartmouth has ED, not EA.

OP has started NUMEROUS THREADS on CC. Problem is, the stats being posted on EVERY Ivy forum are projections, as OP is only a sophomore and hasn't taken a SINGLE one of these tests. Scores are completely fictitious. Clearly this OP is also NOT a National Merit Semi-Finalist or a National AP Scholar! A great deal of misrepresentation going on.
