Dartmouth Early Decision

With just over a week left  for ED EA applications, I will try to squeeze a few more  in

 Lets take a look at Dartmouth. Dartmouth is the smallest  member of the ivy league.

 It  is best known for  a strong liberal arts program  that is supported by     departments with  research capabilities.

Apart from  the common ap . Dartmouth requires one additional essay. Students must attempt one of the  following:( one page limit)

• Every name tells a story: Tell us about your name—any name: first, middle, last, nickname—and its origin.
• Tell us about an intellectual experience, either directly related to your schoolwork or not, that you found particularly meaningful.
• When you meet someone for the first time, what do you want them to know about you, but generally don’t tell them?
• Describe the influence your hero has had on your life.
• We believe it is critical that your candidacy reflect the interests, experiences and pursuits that are most important to you.  To this end, is there anything else you would like us to know?

 One thing  you should keep i mind is that  each prompt has multiple  spects to it. If you talk about your hero  ,m the focus of your essay is on the influence they had on you not  about why they are your hero.   Your hero need not be a famous person.  Pick someone  close to you and focus on the influence aspect especially if they have influenced  your academic interests or the way you think.
