<p>dude just bc ur mexican doesnt mean ull get in harvard..its not exactly that easy</p>
<p>if you score a 2100... i say in at Harvard. don't listen to these people, theres been research done that a URM (mexican) has a significantly higher chance. In fact, all the people critizing your chances at harvard probably doesn't nearly have the chance you have at Harvard.</p>
<p>just go for it.</p>
<p>even with my rank?</p>
<p>HOLY CHIMICHANGA! I just realized I'm in the top 10% of my class after reading a post on this thread.</p>
<p>I'm only 22/267 and am probably going to go up since I'm currently one of the top ppl in my AP Biology class</p>
<p>RANK DOES NOT MATTER</p>
<p>Have you done anythign amazing (national/international recognition)?</p>
<p>Because if so, then you can basically disregard exact rank, at least from what I've seen about acceptances from my school (which is very competitive).</p>
<p>What's the ethnic breakdown of your school, glucose101?</p>
<p>20% Asian
40% Hispanic
5% African American
35% White</p>
<p>christ this is dumb...</p>
<p>please, please, go to harvard.</p>
<p>PTyan- While I've met a few people at Harvard that did have national/international recognition, I wouldn't say that without it you don't stand a chance. That's just a myth.</p>
<p>YES, people that are ranked highly and seem like perfect applicants are sometimes rejected. That doesn't mean, though, that they were rejected because they didn't cure cancer or win a medal from the President. Don't judge chances by people that were rejected- you'd be surprised how unpredictable it is.</p>
