<p>Yes, Harvard is possible. It will likely come down to essays, recommendations, your interview, and the general impression your application makes on those who read it. All those thousands of hours you spent ECs will need to be distilled into a few short snippets. Attention to detail can make a big difference!</p>

<p>Many other schools are possible too, and I’m sure you will end up somewhere that is a great fit for you, whether you get into Harvard or not</p>

<p>It is possible, but since Harvard gets many outstanding applications a year, you will need a very good essay and recommendation letters, for a start. (Like the other person said.) But based on what you wrote here, you have a decent chance.</p>

4

<p>nope</p>

5

<p>nope lol no chance</p>

6

<p>I think you’re definitely in range of Harvard, if you work on writing decent essays. Good luck, class of 2015!</p>

7

<p>High reach. </p>

<p>ANYTHING IS POSSIBUH</p>

<p>@OnceAnEagle - ignore the naysayers, they know not of what they speak. That doesn’t mean you will get in though, as there will be many other qualified applicants with similar credentials, and they are trying to build a diverse class. Your goal should be to stand out. Be one of those who gets selected because you possess qualities others lack</p>

10

<p>Probably not, but then again the admissions is a crapshoot.</p>

11

<p>Your ECs are great and SAT IIs (except for the math one) look great.
Your ACT is too low, and you don’t have many APs before senior year. Get the ACT score up.</p>

12

<p>You have a good chance, but like what everyone says, an ivy league school is a reach school no matter the circumstances .
@princetonCSgirl‌ I hope you are trolling. 34=too low ?what?!Anything that is 34-36 is virtually the same. </p>

13

<p>34 IS TOO LOW. YOU NEED 37 FOR EVEN MINUTE CONSIDERATION</p>

14

<p>act isnt a problem.
but i m concerned about the no. of aps and math 1 test score</p>

15

<p>Nope, no chance. Maybe community college will take ya if you beg.</p>
