<p>My Harvard alumni interviewer turned out to be my neighbor… So weird hahaha!!</p>
<p>i got a likely from W&M as well, if only it was from Harvard…</p>
<p>Hey guys! Lets bring this thread back! I missed it!</p>
<p>I concur ^_^</p>
<p>I really like chatting with all of you because we’re in this experience together
I don’t think that I’ll be in Cambridge next year though :P</p>
<p>39 days. 10char</p>
<p>Ahhh the interminable wait</p>
<p>seems like forever from now</p>
<p>This whole process and talking with people on here and school that are at a tier-one caliber made me realize how lucky I am to have applied to such good schools. I would love to go to Harvard but I don’t think I will get in. Dream big right? I have really started loving Rice University now and I would be just as happy going there either way, I know I will do great things in life, as I am sure all of you will to. I got a scholarship of 10,000 from the school but I have to go instate in order to receive it. UW-Madison would be so bad if all fails. Thank you everyone who has helped me in this process. I wish everyone the best of luck!</p>
<p>I love Harvard a lot (like A LOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOT OMG), but I’d honestly be completely honored to gain admittance to any of the schools I’ve applied to (even fratty Dartmouth, lol).
They’re all perf. >__<</p>

<p>You should make a chance me thread on the chances forum or on the Harvard forum.</p>
<p>Other than that, it looks like you have the within range stats for Harvard (even though you should get your SAT I score up) and your EC’s are great, Harvard admissions, especially for internationals, are such crapshoots. </p>
<p>Best of luck.</p>

<p>Hey. I’ve just been offered a second interview… What does this mean?? This normal??</p>
