<p>i really want to go to harvard. im sure everyone reading this feels the same as i do. it has been a dream of mine for quite some time but i dont think that my stats are good enough:</p>

<p>SAT I: 2140 (700 M 660 V 780 W)
SAT IIs: 730 Math 660 US History 660 Chemistry
African American, but far from poor
President of a few clubs, editor of school paper, saluditorian
GPA: 3.96 weighted
Commended student (one of top 50,000 scorers on PSAT)</p>

<p>do i have a chance? please be honest. so many people got 2300+ and perfect 800s on their subject tests that i feel beneath everyone else.</p>

<p>You have a good shot. i know someone who was asian who got in with similer stats to yours.</p>

3

<p>Your test scores are kinda low, but with your URM status, you have a good chance. You're saluditorian with a 3.96 weighted? How competitive is your school?</p>

4

<p>its like 100 percent minority...im one of the few that cares about my future</p>

5

<p>its weird how my SAT score is in like the 95th percentile, but it is so low compared to everyone else on cc. i got a 32 on the ACT, which is also low, but its the 90 something percentile, as well.</p>

6

<p>your scores are quite similar to mine...</p>

<p>i hope you have a good chance b/c maybe then i do to!
cheers to that!</p>

7

<p>did you apply early and where are you from (city or area)</p>

8

<p>yes, i applied early. im from long island, ny</p>

9

<p>ur sat1 scores are similar to mine so i'd say you have a good shot!</p>

<p>you got great stats, and although i cant really give you any chances because i am in no position to do so and even if i did it would have no bearing on DEC15, i hope you fare well, even if LI has a lot of applicants</p>

11

<p>thanks a lot. good luck to you too</p>

12

<p>It's so funny how I have slightly higher SAT II subject tests scores...but you smoked my OO in the reg SAT. :) My scores are from junior year so I hope they take that into account but I think you have a good shot! Just take a look at the final chance to see my horrid predicament.</p>

13

<p>~CollegeBound~ , your ACT score is in the 99th percentile. Congratulations! :)</p>
