<p>You are obviously an academically talented person. You have no disadvantage, I think, due to the fact you have spent only 2-3 years in US education system. You have stellar SAT, AP and GPAs. Make sure that your passion of psychology is woven throughout the application. I am not sure what the Adcoms are looking for but based on the posts of some of the current Harvard students, I gather passion is an important aspect.</p>
<p>My son is a senior and planning to apply too.</p>
<p>Make sure you get some community service hours in. It would also be in your best interest to represent yourself as a leader, so be thinking about that. A job wouldn't hurt either. Outstanding numbers, of course. Good luck!</p>
<p>Stats are terrific! Have you given any thought to how you hope to contribute to a better world? If not, maybe think about that, and find a way to get started, if only in a small way. After attending the Harvard Welcome ceremony with my D, it was clear to me that H feels a true responsibility toward creating a better world. That may be why my D was accepted. Her stats are amazing, but we know that is not enough. She has also demonstrated over time a true commitment to helping others. Who knows, maybe they thought she might make the difference some day...</p>
