<p>I applied Harvard EA, and I can only compare you to me. I'd say you're very imressive, especially in your ECs. I'd say you have a good shot. You're more than qualified. Then again, with Harvard, it's all in the air. Good luck though, you have a lot going for you.</p>
<p>I would say you have a good chance. You are similar in stats to the valedictorian of my class last year (Princeton RD) so I would say you are in pretty good shape... It is possible that you would get deferred and then accepted, but I don't think a rejection is likely. By the way, what school in Miami? Good luck, you should be fine though. </p>
<p>Just curious, why didn't you take the SAT II Chem if your intended major is Chemistry? Just thought that was a little odd.</p>
<p>yea i know it's odd that i didn't take an sat II in chem lol...i didn't have time to study before the tests and i figured i was safer taking the lit. over the chem b/c i heard the chem is really hard...also, my chemistry teacher was pretty bad soo even though i did fine on the ap i didn't think i was well prepared for the sat II...i think i'll prob take it in january though..thanxx 4 ur post !</p>
<p>wow, from the looks of it, your a modern day goddess.
then again, there are a lot of academic goddesses just like you which is why there is not a 100%. However, may I make a prediction that you will absolutley get in?</p>
<p>Wow, I'm impressed. I did harvard ea, too, and your ec's are a little better than mine, and your scores a little worse. I think you'll be ok, especially since you're hispanic. Anyhow, I'm crossing my fingers for you, and hope to see you in harvard!</p>
