Billie,

My questions were not rhetorical, but you have answered them, so that’s of little moment. For what it’s worth, I would not mention being ambidextrous unless you can tie it to something relevant. If you’re a baseball pitcher, that could be very cool. From an academic point of view, my take would be that it has no meaning.

That your school does not offer recommendation letters in English should not be a problem. Any school you apply to should be able to handle a translation if you explain the circumstances. You’re obviously not going to be the typical applicant, so you may just have to write your own rules in places and hope for the best.

I’m not clear what you mean by “Things like geographic location or political inclination are not what I should consider, sadly” in term of comparing Dartmouth and Amherst. I would not see an extreme difference between the two on either score. Can you clarify?
