<p>I'm a high schools student and am looking into summer college classes next year as well as various internships and academic camps. I have a couple questions.
1. How hard is it really to get into the Harvard SSP?
2. What are some good internship opportunities in the Boston area?
3. If I take summer courses, are science and math classes looked at as more impressive by admissions officers?
4. What are some other good summer opportunities for either a rising junior or a rising senior?</p>
<ol>
<li>Very easy to get in.</li>
<li>Most internships are better than taking more classes. (I know that doesn’t really answer your question)</li>
</ol>
<p>4 is too vague. We have no idea about your qualifications, or interests, or family connections. Qualifications determine whether you would be able to get into some of the selective programs. Family connections can (but does not necessarily) influence the internship opportunities available.</p>
<p>I have a strong math background (I’m on math team) and a strong science background but my interests lie in physchology and history.</p>
