@verizonwireless: Harvard’s 25th percentile ACT score is a 32 (2140 SAT), but many of those students may not be on College Confidential. And the prevailing wisdom is that the majority of students with scores at the 25th percentile are URM’s, legacy’s or recruited athletes. So, you’re correct. If you are an unhooked, white jewish kid from a Yeshiva with a 95 GPA, you’re chances of getting into Harvard with less than a 2200 are minimal.
