Harvard is a back-up for me, right?

Gpa 2.0 weighted (1.7 unweighted)
Sat: 1100 (420 Math 350 English 380 writing)
I can trace my lineage back to the mayflower (so im golden!)
no ec's really but i do work here and there

Please let me no this is a back-up cuz im really worried if i need to apply elsewhere too. Like i said, my creditials arent great, but, i can trace my lineage back to the mayflower, so i should be a shoe-in.

It is a well known fact that if your ancestors came here on the mayflower, and you can prove it, Harvard has to accept you. They have no choice, it is in their constitution (i just found that out).

Are you freaking serious, that's the most ridiculous thing i've ever heard, i doubt that it's true but it's not fair to hard working applicants, with scores like that you'll drop out anyway.

Truly a great step forward in trolling. Actually, I'm interested in knowing which aspect of the Harvardesque stereotype led you to go about talking about Mayflower lineage and whatnot.

By the way, your *actual* SAT scores aren't exactly Harvard range, either. Sorry mate.

its all about being related to someone from the mayflower man. Thats all it is. Yall should really check on like ancestors.com or watnot see if you got a relative from way back when from that mayflower. and to respond to the revolution my ancestors worked hard rowing the mayflower. they paid for my harvard education in sweat and blood. and i wont fail out (we get weighted gpa's at harvard too)
