<p>Read through this year's admissions decisions threads and you'll see why it's so impossible to guess who will get admitted. Your stats are fine (though you might want to retake for math). You probably still have a less than 10% chance of being accepted. You can't get accepted if you don't apply. <a href="http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/harvard-university/483555-official-harvard-2012-decisions-thread.html%5B/url%5D"&gt;http://talk.collegeconfidential.com/harvard-university/483555-official-harvard-2012-decisions-thread.html&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/p>

<p>Bring up the Math score... I agree with mathmom.. There is no magic formula to get in... Harvard has so many qualified applicants.. It's all about diversifying the student body for them.</p>
