Harvard is a reach for anyone.

You definitely have a shot. No guarantees, since it IS Harvard, but you have a decent chance. good luck!

RPreZZ

I wish you good luck (: I think you got a shot at everywhere you apply

bgmargate

I'm confused. What do you mean ethnicity is Muslim??Isn't that your religion?

UNIVELOCITY

If you could get that score up it'd make u a highly favorable candidate because you have a high gpa. Apply to other ivies too like Cornell also UC Berkeley and other top schools too tho because Harvard rejects so many geniuses every year!!! I think you have great stats!!! Good luck!

Catria

Try Bates or Bowdoin if you're OK with attending a school where ACT doesn't matter.

You have excellent grades, but your ACT is low for Harvard. It will be a reach. Good luck.

futurethinker

I respect all your replies, thanks!

ACT is a bit low (and by a bit I mean a point or two), but don't freak! All of the Ivy's look at applicants hollistically. That said, you could use some volunteering projects.

Good luck!!

Catria

What are your safeties?
