MODERATOR’S NOTE:
Don’t assume facts not in evidence. Since the OP states that s/he wants to study chem and physics, don’t assume engineering.

By the way, in the original post OP says “…wondering if harvard is a real option with my mediocre GPA and test scores.” 1590 out of 1600 on the SAT, with four 800’s on subject tests does not count as anything other than “superb”.

I think that’s it’s a misplaced modifier. I think s/he meant to say “wondering if harvard is a real option with my test scores and mediocre GPA.” Although a 3.77 GPA is not “mediocre,” it’s less disingenuous than how the sentence was written. Of course, I may be ignoring my own advice by assuming.

Of course, the OP has not returned since posting, so all this may be academic.
