hey

I think if you have straight A's and you are taking IB classes, I think you should be fine. I think that the criteria for international students are a lot linient than for US residents. My uncles have couple of friends who attend/attended Harvard and there were all international students. I have not many anyone who went to Harvard that are from the US. If you are hard working, show that you really are a unique, diligent student, I think you have a chance of getting accepted. You need to work really hard and find your way.

I'm quite sure I'll attend an high school for one year before trying attending Harvard.What do you think about Phillips Academy Andover, Dana Hall school or Lawrenceville Academy ?Moreover I fence and play tennis and those schools have facilities for students who pratice sports.
I read lot of english book and I'm gonna take the TOEFFL.
What high school and university did you attend?
thank you
