<p>yeah just to add to that. Those 55 out of 955 applicants are all ridiculously qualified/overqualified. A huge number of them are probably kids who were accepted as freshman but turned it down for some reason or another. The other half are probably royal families and kids who designed solar systems for African villages. The point is, that youre underestimating the admissions process at a school like Harvard.</p>
<p>a few other points to consider:
* your gpa may not drop as much as you think (i bet harvard has = or greater grade inflation than bucknell)
* your happiness has a value, and if you think you're going to be devastated by leaving your bucknell friends you should take that into consieration
* money is important, and if harvard's going to give you a better aid package you should really consider it. law school is amazingly expensive and doesn't give much aid, so minimizing debt while you can is definitely a good idea.</p>
