<p>Hello. I attend an elite business high school with no science. It’s the most competitive and greatest high school in the entire country though. Has international prestige. 10% drop out of the school, because of the difficulty, and only 80 students attend the school. I’m also one of the top students in this school.</p>
<p>We only have classes directly or indirectly related to business.</p>
<p>International Economy
Corporate Economy
Our native language.
Math
History
English
Commercial
German
Marketing
Society studies
Rhetoric class.</p>
<p>How does Harvard look upon this?
Is it really bad that I have a lack of classes that others might have?
Oh, and obviously I am looking to major in business.</p>
<p>I would explain your situation and try to self-study some sat subject tests in science to prove your competence (maybe do Bio, Chem, and Physics?).</p>
<p>Harvard states that the ideal candidate would have 4 years of science with labs (and most admitted students had some of those sciences AP). As Harvard does not have an undergraduate business program, they might not value your business classes. You might want to look into UPenn-Wharton’s undergraduate business program, perhaps (yet unlikely) they would overlook your lack of sciences.</p>
<p>That can’t be right.
One of the graduates from this school attended Medicine school at Copenhagen University.
He only had Physics, no Biology or Chemistry.</p>
<p>Harvard’s recommended courseload is just that, I think, recommended but not cookie-cutter. I’m not so sure “As Harvard does not have an undergraduate business program, they might not value your business classes” is an easy statement to make. Since your situation is unique you might want to speak to a Harvard admissions representative, since I don’t think many people here have experience dealing with your kind of school.</p>
