<p>0% chance, since Harvard requires SAT/ACT.</p>

<p>But seriously, repost this after you get your SAT score. I never got why people made these threads without test scores.</p>

<p>Anyone else with suggestions? lol</p>

<p>get your class rank higher, 2250+ on sat I, 2 760+ on sat II’s… most of the time all a URM needs is high scores, so focus on that.</p>

<p>I would say if you get your U.W to 3.93+, your rank to top 10, and your SAT scores up to par, you have a good chance.</p>

<p>But if you want to be more certain of getting in, aim for a 2300+ on your SAT.</p>
