<p>Hi. Congrats to those accepted to Harvard. I was wondering how many A-Levels did you take and from which board? What are your SAT scores?</p>

<p>Anyone…please???</p>

<p>Just take on what you can handle…challenge yourself, do your best, and don’t worry about what other people are doing. Stats really don’t matter…they have thousands of people who fit perfectly into their mid-ranges, but that doesn’t mean those thousands are going to get in. Just hope for the best.</p>

<p>But I still want to know…</p>

<p>I imagine that it would be similar to the results of those who get into Oxbridge. So that’s either AAA or AAAA. As for the board, I doubt it matters, but probably Edexcel or Cambridge Pre-U.</p>

<p>A bit of a late response but I hope you will see this/it will be of some use. I attend high school in Hong Kong in a school that does the British system and was accepted and will be attending Harvard the coming fall. I did 4 A - Levels (Maths, Biology, Economics, History) and 3 AS levels (English Language [only offered up to AS at my school], Chinese and German). It is not uncommon for people here to do 5 A levels but I just did 4 in the end and used the extra time to prep for the SAT II’s since the subjects I did for them were slightly different than the A level coverage. The exam board was Edexcel and for SAT 1 I got 2320</p>

<p>^Which SAT Subjects did you take? I’ve got 3 As (Maths, Further Maths, Physics) and am considering how many to take.</p>

<p>What else do they need apart from A-level and SAT results?
What are the subjects they need from both the exams?
Please reply</p>

<p>Harvard will also need your GCSE or O’ Level results. You can take the SAT Subject Test in any subject, but you should avoid taking both maths papers. </p>

<p>As others said, Harvard knows that most A’ Level students in the UK (and elsewhere) are not allowed to take more than three full A’ Levels. If you or your teachers can communicate this to Harvard, you won’t be put on a disadvantage. </p>

<p>I would think that Harvard would expect anything from A*AA-AAA, as these are the standard Oxbridge offers.</p>
