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.
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.
