A few things to consider:
-You are so fortunate that your parents will pay for your college. Take a moment and appreciate that.
-Appreciate your parent’s background and that they seem to want the best for you.
-Do you HATE Harvard because it has been pushed don your, or is there something in particular you don’t like? It is a large school where most people can care out their place.
-The odds of getting into Harvard are slim for anyone (Unless you are in the Kennedy family or something).
-Be honest with your dad about your concerns with Harvard.
-Look at Harvard but look at other schools as well.
-Talk to your guidance counselor with your dad about other options and opportunities.
-Think about what you want to get out of a college experience and how it will impact your future career.
