Chance Me / Match Me!
1

<p>I am applying to Harvard Early Action and hoping to hear back soon.</p>

<p>My GPA is a 3.92 unweighted</p>

<p>Test Scores:
ACT: Comp. 34, Math 36, Science 36, Reading 34, English 34
SAT I: 600 Writing, 700 Critical Reading, 780 Math
SAT II: 780 Physics, 750 Math II</p>

<p>My EC's are mostly work experience, and I also started my own business. I am also a competitive ski racer and will be on the ski team at Harvard. I am also a National Merit Scholarship Commended Student, and I received a prestigious math and science award from my school.</p>

<p>My essays are pretty good and I'm confident that my recommendations are excellent. My interview went great and the interviewer informed me that they would write a good report. </p>

<p>Also, I am a white male applying from Utah.</p>

<p>What are my chances?</p>

<p>Astronomically low. It’s not you, it’s Harvard.
A lot of this is pretty vague. I mean, starting your own business? For all I know that could be a lemonade stand you had in your front yard when you were five.</p>

<p>You have a chance, but Harvard gets too many applications from people with great grades and all sorts of awards. </p>

<p>Harvard: High Reach</p>

<p>Apply to other schools as well.</p>

<p>If your ECs are truly that awesome, than I would say reach. Apply EA will help. Fingers crossed because it’s Harvard.

<p>i mean youre basically getting cacked by the harvard admissions. the 3.92 is incredibly risky the amount of risk in the gpa is absolutely insane. Also starting your own buisness is nothing new, nowadays everyone is doing it. Dont get your hopes up man youre probally getting rolled fatt by harvard ed.
just embrace it</p>
