<p>I’d say that you have a good chance, if you can bring everything together to a specific meaning to you in life (write well done essays). Just one weakness I noticed is your SAT I and SAT II’s. Try to tweek up your SAT I, and ensure 700+ on your SAT II’s. Best of luck to you!</p>

<p>It’s just hard to really say exactly where you stand</p>

<p>Thanks for quick reply guys. I agree, I do have to spend some time thinking about how I’m going to combine all my activities into a cohesive whole.</p>

<p>Right now, my huge passion is writing and multimedia, and I plan to study English. I also have a passion for history, so my business combines these two areas. Plus, most all my ecs which I feel are worth mentioning, all fall into this area. In fact, one of the reasons I was first attracted to Harvard years back was because of the rich history it possessed. Anyway, I think that those interests are probably the ones I will place most emphasis on, but I am open to suggestions.</p>
