<p>Harvard accepts 6 students out of every 100 applications it receives. With those kind of odds, many valedictorians with 4.0 unweighted GPA’s and 2400 SAT’s are rejected. Rather than ask strangers to “chance you”, you should be asking yourself: What unique talents and abilities can I bring to Harvard? What else, besides my GPA and great extracurriculars, will make my application standout from the crowd? What separates me from the 35,000 other students who are also applying? When you have answered those questions, you will know what chance you have.</p>
