Harvard SSP??

<p>Hey! :) So I was thinking about applying to Harvard SSP but I have a bbigggg problem... So, I'm a sophomore in highschool right now, and for my midterms I kind of slacked...like a lot. Because in my school your midterms don't effect anything. If you get let's say 80 on midterms, and 95's second term, your final report would be like a 92. It's the teachers choice how much of your first term mark they want to incorporate in your final percentage, so if I went to them and cried and was all "I tried sooo hard second term, and blah blah blah" They'd give me like a 95 second term. SO yeah, basically I didn't realize I'd be applying to a summer program and slacked.</p>

<p>My ninth grade transcripts are all in the 90s except for one french mark which was insanely bad. Like 70s bad. I'm Canadian though, so for us an 80 is like an A :P ANYWAY, yeah, my midterm grades are all like high 80s :/ (except math which is 90s) and I need to send those in along w/ 9th grade transcripts. SO, should I even bother applying? Do you think I stand a chance?</p>

<p>Harvard SSP is one of those you-pay-you-get-in programs. Anything that costs $10,000 is not going to be “selective”.</p>

<p>Hhaha right… was kinda hoping for financial aid though :P</p>

<p>Does it cost money to apply? If not apply and find out. $10000 is a lot of money for a summer program.</p>
