<p>I already sent them an email but I didn’t see the numbers on there. Thank you very very very much everyone and good luck to you all!! :)</p>

<p>guys does anyone know a good score I gotta get to be competitive for harvard? this is all making me so nervous.</p>

<p>^^ I’d say a 34 and you’d be pretty competitive</p>

<p>17 minutes! get your towels ready!!!</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>The average score for acceptees is in the 32-33 region. A competitive score for Harvard is in the 33-36 region, with a 35 or higher on the safe side.</p>

<p>This is nerve-wracking… :)</p>

<p>^30 and a lot of ECs = 34</p>

<p>

LoL, I got deferred from both u of chicago and notre dame with a 34. Score doesn’t matter, it’s the number of community service hours you have and how much garbage you put on your app. Everyone who exaggerates gets into good colleges, not people with good scores.</p>

<p>Hmmm if I bomb everything and I get a 20 this time worst case scenario I can retake to try to get a 36 in february again for harvard right?</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>I didn’t say that a certain ACT score would guarantee acceptance. But it has to be in a certain range before admissions committees at Harvard will move on to other factors.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>Nah, they’ll be like okay, decent score and essay, but wait a second that guy has a fairly poor essay and a low score but somehow managed 20 EC clubs and was the president for all of them, lets let him in, even though that’s not even possible.</p>

<p>

</p>

<p>The first consideration for any college is academics - given Harvard’s reputation, you’d have to have an impressive academic record before they’d even begin to consider your essays/extracurriculars. Of course, those have to be spot-on too. Everything has to be spot-on.</p>

<p>Diez minutos!</p>

<p>That is extremely depressing because I have a 31…hoping for a 32+…and I thought I had a pretty decent chance at both of those schools :(</p>

<p>I made some really stupid mistakes on the math section. =P They were my only mistakes.</p>

<p>1) 6x4 = 10</p>

<p>2) 25+9 I put 36 -.-</p>

<p>golfer, for all you know, he might have had poor ECs and grades. a 34 doesn’t say much.
6 mintues!</p>

<p>a few mins left going to watch a Korean drama on the meantime :D</p>

<p>Don’t worry about it. Trust me…It’s not just about scores. Everything is taken into context. They understand that it’s just how you did on ONE day. The rest of your application is your entire 4 years.</p>

<p>2 minutes!</p>

<p>2 minutes, methinkssss.</p>
