GCSE grades for Harvard and MIT

Applying to College
1

Hello guys,

I am currently doing my A-levels and have predicted 4 A*s along with a 2300 SAT score. I also do a bunch of really amazing Extracurricular activities and have written good essays. I am also prepping for the SAT II’s currently.

However during high school, I only managed to get 7 A’s and 3 B’s for my GCSE grades. (0 As ).
Alot of people who apply to these schools get As in their GCSEs.

Considering I also do well for my SAT II (750-800), how much will my high school grades affect my admission to these top schools. Do you guys think these grades are ok? Can they be considered negligible?

Any help is greatly appreciated.

It really, truly, is OK to communicate with the International Admissions officer at each place, and ask if you are on track or not.
