<p>Appreciate it</p>
<p>Your Sat score is good, but your EC's are the weakest part of the application, since it is Harvard, a lot of kids with near perfect scores will apply, I think its going to come down to how well your essays are and how strong your EC's are........ Have a good chance though......</p>
<p>I obiviously can't make a good judgement because I am a senior in hs, and scored 140 points lower than you on the Sat.....good luck.....</p>
<p>Chance Me.....</p>
<p>Yes, you have strong scores and an impressive resume (could have some more interesting ECs though). But Harvard is really looking for new, fresh, and most definitely not "nerd". If your essay conveys that you do something other than study and you have social skills, this will definintely work for you. Show that you're different from the pack of nerds that they have to sift through. PERSONALITY is extremely important for Harvard, so convey that as much as possible without seeming desparate. Believe me, I know a harvard admissions officer.</p>
