I am willing to continue to work my hardest! Is there any chance that I can get into harvard?</p>
<p>Who can say ? Just keep working and do your best .</p>
<p>You’ve put yourself in a state context which is really important. Being good for your high school is not enough. Just work on getting your SAT scores up. You’re a sophomore though, so you have time. I got a 2010 my sophomore year and ended up with a 2210 by end of junior year, so you should be fine. If anything else, just show your character somehow. Maybe start a support group for bullied students or something?</p>
<p>You are a very bright and intelligent person, showing a lot of leadership skills and many other aspects that looks very good on college applications. I think you will do great on the SAT and I sincerely think that you have a high chance of getting into Harvard. Honestly, let’s trade brains, I wish I was as smart and as hardworking as you are.</p>
<p>Well, since your grades and extracurriculars are good, now it really depends on where you go to high school. Is your high school parochial, private or public? Is it among the best in your state? Many qualified applicants have been turned down in favor of an equally or even less qualified applicant from PA, Exeter, Deerfield, etc.</p>
<p>I recommend you attend a summer session at PA or Exeter.</p>
<p>That’s terrible advice, and also OP mostly needs much higher test scores. (Which sounds reasonable if he/she didn’t study much for the first time.)</p>
<p>What AP classes would harvard like to see you make an A in? Calculus with multiple variables, economics, etc?</p>
