How are my chances?

<p>Hey I was wondering what my chances of getting into Harvard are,</p>

<p>I have a 3.5 unweighted, probably a 4.2 weighted
I'm in the top 10% of my class, I'm just not sure of the exact number.
2200 on my SAT's (740 Critical Reading, 700 Math, 760 Writing)
31 on my ACT's (33 english, 29 math, 33 reading, 27 science). My writing scores aren't up yet.
I've taken two SAT II's and they were US history 740 and Molecular Biology 690. I plan on taking a math and maybe world history.
8th-10th grade I was in all honors with college business law in 10th grade, 11th grade I had 3 AP's and College Pre-Calc, 12th grade I'm in 5 AP's and College French.
I've been on the Varsity golf team since 8th grade and I will be the captain in my senior year.
I'm the political writer for the school newspaper.
I plan on running for an officer position for my school's National Honor Society.
I'm the Vice President of the Orchestra.
I am also on the academic team.</p>

<p>I plan on being a PoliSci major in college and this is what I have been doing to help me with that:
1) I have interned at my local US Congressman's office since 9th grade.
2) This summer I am doing legislative research for that Congressman on the genocide in Darfur to hopefully get legislation going in the congress.
3) I have ties with the Democratic Party so I do campaigning and work with the Young Democrats.</p>

<p>Also July 18th I have an interview with Harvard. </p>

<p>Thanks in advance,</p>

<p>these experiences could help you if you explain them well in your essay.</p>

<p>You have a shot if you write a mind-blowing essay and have an interview of similar quality. However, keep in mind that Harvard is expecting yet another record-breaking number of applications next year.</p>
