<li><p>No interview… poor SAT’s nothing really special in my app</p></li>
<li><p>No, I’m realistic about my chances, I’ll cry if I get in though ( which is not very likely at all )</p></li>
</ol>
<ol>
<li><p>1%? nice and clean. </p></li>
<li><p>good test score, but not so impressive as an Asian international. One of the worst, if not the worst, EC’s out of all applicants. seems like these count a LOT in the process. Honestly, I could never imagine my application going to committee and people arguing for my case. All I have is a 2300 SAT and there are plenty of people with this score. Not so great gpa either. </p></li>
<li><p>I’ll strip and jump into the pool next to my house with a beer bottle in my hand if I get in. while crying. Won’t cry if I get rejected cuz that would be expected.</p></li>

<p>Well i’m confident i’ll get in because of God. You can’t really place a percentage rating on that (except…100% lol). Also I have been accepted to 10 of the 21 schools I have applied to so far (without any rejections) with some presidential scholarships, so I know that I am being blessed already and that I must be doing something right.</p>
<p>21 schools?</p>
<p>I applied to two major schools (one is Harvard), with a third as backup. The third school is the school my father works at. Although I understand and agree with your choices, I’m really not of the mindset of applying to every ivy, and go to the best one that accepts me. Harvard is personally an excellent fit, and to even better that I think I’d be a great and unique perspective for the student body. $0.02
</p>
<p>Okay my chance just dropped to 0%…since I just got rejected from UChicago.
Why? I don’t know.
I won’t cry anymore cuz I just did @.@.</p>
<p>I dunno. Probably 10-15%.</p>
<p>Got into UChicago EA.</p>
<p>Lol, I did not apply to every ivy. Not all of the 21 schools are “private”</p>
<p><em>cough</em> Atmosphere <em>cough</em> :D</p>
<p>? ^ …</p>
<p>I suspected your username was a movie reference, so I googled it and found out it was part of a song by atmosphere… oh well :o</p>
<p>LOL OH! Actually my username is a song reference but from a line in a particular song, not the name of the song itself…nice try though Mr. Wall Street: Money never sleeps ;)</p>

2 Grades sucks. SAT/ACT not Harvard Material. Math Grade grades are so bad that i want to die… </p>
<p>3 I applied to Harvard to fill my dream to apply there. So i m done. and I screwed up in High School, not going to do it in College… SO Hello to Harvard Grad School.
I will be sad… But Hopeful for next time. :D</p>

<li>No Harvard interview = no acceptance for international students. (because Harvard only interviews international students after shortlisting, unlike Yale and Princeton)</li>
<li>Not at all. I’d have a good laugh and move on.</li>
</ol>
<p>^ Or, you are so awesome that they don’t need an interview to accept you?</p>
