<p>if you want to go to harvard, then apply early. you could be deferred if you aren't admitted early, and then get in later, but I envision that you would have a great shot in the sense that you are a 1st generation college student and that you would qualify for their new jacked up financial aid program which they love to caress. your scores are very good, and you seem to be taking on an increasingly difficult schedule. Start working on your essays and make the real you stand out from your application.</p>

<p>you have a great shot, but you'll never get in ED...because harvard doesn't have ED, it's EA hehe but i think you have a really good chance EA or RD :)</p>

4

<p>what is your unweighted GPA</p>

5

<p>My unweighted GPA is 3.6.</p>

<p>you could be deferred because they will want to see senior year grades, but if you are dying for harvard, it will be worth it because you could get in regular anyways. or you could get in regular without applying EA. You've got a good shot regardless.</p>
