<p>Wow this kid immediately above me is really tooling. (Encountering him on multiple threads.) Get your “ACT above 35”? Seriously? He’s right that you’re low, but 34-36, at the very least, are almost equivalent, and plenty of people do get in with relatively but not absolutely low-ish test scores like yours. (I think you’re above the 25th percentile for accepted Harvard applicants.)</p>
