Hi! I applied regular decision to Harvard, I have a 35 ACT, SAT subject tests: 800 Chemistry, 800 MATH II and 750 World history. I have an unweighted 4.0 GPA, am president of my class and have done track and swimming for four years. I also am involved in other clubs and mission worth with my church.

From what you’ve posted, there are thousands and thousands of applicants with roughly similar stats and comparable ECs (good but niot outstanding). It is impossible for any of us to guess who will get one of the golden tickets and who will not. There are about 1100 seats left for the 34,000 plus applicants being considered. About 110 of this seats will go to internationals, 220 to URMs, 220 to Asians, 50-150 to first generation kids, etc,. All you can do is hope for best and all we can say is we wish you well.
Good luck!

@Jen1114, “chancing” is guesswork at best, and chancing someone after they have already applied is pointless. The only opinions that matter now are those of the adcom members’.
Jen I think you have a very good chance but make sure you aren’t too fixed on any one school!
Jen posted three sentences so I couldn’t really get a sense of what she(?) is like but since she does missions for her church, I’m going to assume she’s a good egg. Best of luck to you Jen!
Just to clarify, my retort in post #3 was aimed at a rude post that has since been deleted.
To echo the sentiments of others you have got the goods! Congratulations to you, what you have accomplished has not come without significant effort.
Best of luck to you!
