SAT is a little low for Harvard, but not too bad. SAT II's are pretty good and 10 APs is a wide variety of them. Good community service and trusting you on the good extra currics. The only thing is that Harvard is a HUGE reach for everyone applying there. But, I would give you a 5% CHANCE.

I am a "UK A Level" straight A student and got 780 and 800 on to of my subject tests and expect perfect scores on two more.I am the student council president since my tenth grade,doing a lot of community work in the anti-narcotics campaign and am currently writing a fiction novel.I won 3rd position in my city in the International Kangroo mathematical contest and finished in the top 30 in my country out of thousands of test takers.I won an inter school chemistry quiz competition as well as an essay competition for which I got a certificate of merit from the provincial chief minister.But my biggest worry is a very low 2030 on the SAT( though I got 700+ for both math and writing I only got a 600 on reading).I took SAT only once and for reasons unexplainable I can't retake it.Also I have remained the top position holder in my class for 10 consecutive years from 1st to the 10th grade ,a record in my institution's history of all time.but my SAT score is becoming the only and lethal killer in my application.I also have got glowing recommendations.Please help me by telling ways of masking my low SAT score by standing out in other ways.I am preparing a very strong essay too so plz plz plz give tips on other ways to make my application unique.I am not bragging but i dont know why I feel that I am Harvard stuff.plz plz help me.really worried about Harvard college dream
