<p>I think I’m being realistic. Yes, the OP has near perfect scores, but testing is only one part of the applications package, and it’s not as important as your teacher recommendations, guidance counselor report and essays – all of which the OP did not post. As a URM, the OP will be compared to all other URM’s in the applications pool. But as we don’t know who else is applying and what is in their applications package, it’s impossible to say what the OP chances are.</p>

<p>In 2008, Harvard did not list the number of African American applicants who applied, but Columbia had 1959 students, Yale had 1700 students, Cornell had 1895 students, Brown had 1261 students, Princeton had 1383 students.</p>
