<p>Well, you should find yourself a hook (tennis?) and improve your SAT1s a bit I guess.. Because now you look like an average applicant, especially since you’re an ORM. </p>

<p>Good luck though!</p>

8

<p>Touché. :slight_smile:
Honestly, you’re qualified, but so are about 23058 other kids. Good luck.</p>

9

<p>Where are you located?</p>

10

<p>singapore…</p>

11

<p>bump…</p>

12

<p>see if you can get recruited for Tennis-otherwise typical long shot</p>

13

<p>alright…any other comments???</p>

14

<p>Haha, you have the same stats as me. So…I would say you have a chance. Probably a 20-30% chance, which is actually a lot. Just retake SATs?</p>

15

<p>i think ur SAT Reasoning test score needs to be higher</p>

16

<p>What is the breakdown of your SATI?
You look like an average applicant with nothing exciting in EC’s besides your participation in many sports. I don’t know… you have a lot going for you but it’s Harvard…</p>

17

<p>if instead of him or her being asian, what if they were hispanic? would they have a good chance?</p>

18

<p>Sorry, no chance</p>

19

<p>dying4ivy- yes there chances would improve if they were hispaic</p>

20

<p>Yes… it will help a lot if you are hispanic…
I’m asian and with 4 SAT II scores and worried if I could get in (all 800)
The hispanic kid I know that got in had only 2 scores</p>
