<p>All you can do right now and up till january of your senior year is do the best YOU can and do things YOU love and are passionate about. People I know who go to Harvard don’t plan for it before spring of their junior year when we start looking at colleges. As posters above stated, Harvard is so competitive and random at times that all you can do is do the best you can in high school, work hard on your application, and hope for the best.</p>
