<p>Bump, this is virtually useless, I’m not an admission officer; most importantly, I don’t have access to your whole application. All I can tell is you are rather academically qualified based on your stats (Maybe). Nice ECs too (or perhaps amazing). Beyond that you can find out by applying. Remember you have “0% of being admitted if you don’t apply.”
The point of CC ppl posting their stats on selective colleges like Harvard is virtually futile. It does little to help know your chances.
Remember Harvard is trying to create a most diverse class as possible, so no matter how good you are, if there happens to be one like your profile, you will have reduced chance of being admitted.</p>
