When i visited i just though that it was the most amazing place and it would make me so happy to go there. the only problem is that i know i am not really good enough.

<p><em>ahem</em> I thought Dartmouth was your dream school. :p</p>

<p>it changes around. haha</p>

<p>I’d say you’re on the strong side, but there are a lot of people applying from California and that unfortunately can be to your disadvantage. </p>
