<p>Im an Extremely good student and a good listener. A few of my classes are math, spanish, english, band, science, and american history.
I'm currently 7th grade and got all A's in 6th grade and all A's the first semester of this year.
I'd like to go to harvard, yale, or MIT.</p>
<p>…Please relax, and hold off posting a chance thread until you have something more to post about (I would say junior year at earliest). We can’t really chance you if you’re in 7th grade, especially since we don’t have any information about you other than you are currently doing well in school (e.g. test scores, ECs, which are arguably more important at the schools you listed than grades after a certain point).</p>
<p>Also, I feel like you just took the 3 most prestigious schools and decided that those are your dream schools. I did that too. But then, I realized that there are many other VERY good schools that are better for me (e.g. is better for my major than those, or better environment), that I would rather go to than Harvard, Yale, or MIT. I highly recommend you do more research about different schools before choosing which schools you want to aim for; you’ll end up with a much more enjoyable and beneficial 4 years in university.</p>
<p>Just do as well as you can in high school, then MAYBE ask again. It’s impossible to tell, since you have not even entered ninth grade yet, where grades begin to matter. Besides, Harvard rejects 19/20 people, so chances are near impossible to determine for pretty much all applicants.</p>
<p>Just relax, and read a lot. I wish I was a 7th grader again, when grades didn’t matter and you could do pretty much whatever you wanted whenever you wanted. All I did in middle school was read read read.</p>
<p>Yeah what you do in middle school doesn’t really affect your chances since they only look at high school stuff… Just enjoy being a kid for now, but I have high hopes for you :)</p>
<p>It’s never too early to start planning, but you need to just stay focused, work hard, win awards, and focus on something that you like which the colleges will also find interesting. </p>
<p>eg. The rounded 4.0/2300 with standard club president ECs and a cookie-cutter essay (… I learned the importance of hard work, and that science is important to mankind… ) is usually rejected.
The 3.8/2200 with an extraordinary research contribution and a very compelling essay is often accepted.</p>
<p>^he/she seems right. If you want to be assured acceptance to Harvard or MIT or Yale, cancer research is the way. But most admitted students are not cancer researchers though.</p>
<p>Dude. Relax. Live life. Have fun. Get good grades. Do what you love and worry about college after you’re IN high school. And not getting into Harvard isn’t the end of the world. There’s a lot of schools that are just as good. all top 20’s a basically a crapshoot. ESPECIALLY THE IVIES.</p>
