My year-average grades freshman year were not so stellar:

*Composition 1- A (state college class through dual enrollment)

The rest of my grades for the other years are pretty good, all A’s with only one B+ and one A- (and lots of APs).

Do you think Harvard would even give my app any consideration with grades like these? My extracurriculars are strong - student government for 4 years with 3 years as an officer, 3 student rep. on school council, 2 years student rep. on school committee, 3 years student rep. on regional student advisory council, 2 years state department of education student rep, 8 college courses, founder & president of shakespeare club, and numerous school plays).
