<p>HOW CAN I IMPROVE MY APPLICATION?</p>

2

<p>STOP YELLING.</p>

<p>The real question here is why do you want to apply to all the Ivy Leagues? They are all extremely different and it would be extremely surprising if you liked them all. If you’re simply applying for the prestige, and applying to all of them to raise your chances of getting into one, then don’t bother applying. Visit some (or all if you are so inclined and have the time and money) and make your decision on where to apply based on that. </p>

3

<p>I agree with the above poster. There is no way you like every ivy league school. They are all different. Just compare Dartmouth and Columbia… </p>

<p>To improve your application you need to find schools that you wan’t to apply to. And no being well ranked on us news report is not a good reason for wanting to go to a school.</p>

4

<p>I would say you are in at Dartmouth.</p>

5

<p>Think about your career plan. Pick the school that fit you the best, may it be an Ivy or not. You are qualify to apply to any school although admission to some schools are still competitive. You are all set for your credential. Otherwise, this is a trolling thread.</p>

6

<p>WHAT COUNTRY ARE YOU FROM? THIS WILL HAVE A HUGE IMPACT ON WHAT YOUR CHANCES ARE. WHAT ALSO IS YOUR ETHNIC BACKGROUND?</p>

7

<p>What’s up with all the caps…? </p>

8

<p>Im indian. Live in middle east. No minority background</p>

9

<p>You sound so arrogant, nice job! Definitely highlight how you are the best person ever and how everyone else is inferior and you will have a guaranteed acceptance. Admissions officers LOVE to see how egocentric you are! </p>

10

<p>[/SHOUTING] :)) </p>

<p>Two more questions before I give you my feedback:</p>

<p>1) What is your intended major?
2) Will you need financial aid?</p>

11

<p>“VALEDICTORIAN AWARD EVERY YEAR SIINCE 6TH GRADE” :)) :)) didn’t know there was a valedictorian system for middle school</p>

<p>Anyways, to be completely serious, all of them are reaches. You know that just as well as I do. It also doesn’t help you’re an international.</p>

12

<p>No i dont need financial aid
Intended major is business administration </p>

13

<p>OP: there are no business administration majors at Stanford, Harvard, Yale, Princeton, Brown, Columbia, Dartmouth. Only Penn (Wharton) and Cornell offer such major. You might want to do some actual google research on each school…</p>

14

<p>I don’t see the connection between an interest in business and the ECs presented above. Please help us make the link (Admissions officers will also struggle).</p>

<p>Your stats are good, not needing financial aid is also a plus. Being from the middle east is also a plus. However being an Indian (desi) is considered over-represented. </p>

<p>Based upon all the above, your chances are the same as most other applicants who will be applying (5-10% acceptance rate depending on school). I don’t see any distinguishing characteristics that separate you from the pack (apart perhaps from geographic diversity middle east). Good luck</p>

15

<p>Stop padding your application with items from grammar school. Nothing counts if it was done before ninth grade, unless what you performed or completed was so incredible that it made international headlines.
Also, stop yelling.</p>

16

<p>Too hard to read since it’s all caps with no paragraphs. But from what I can gather, you have as much of a shot as anyone, which is to say you have a 5-10% chance of being admitted.</p>

<p>I would suggest doing further research on additional schools. Most of the Ivy League schools do not offer an undergrad business program, and the quality of life at many of them are very different. I find it hard to believe that an applicant will be equally happy at Hanover, NH or Morningside Heights, NY. Nor do I think that an applicant that is attracted to Brown’s Open Curriculum would be satisfied with Columbia’s Core Curriculum.</p>
