Are you sure you’ve explored enough schools and given this enough thought? Are you considering Harvard SCEA because of its name and ranking? You seem very focused on CS and there might be better options for you. Carnegie Mellon won’t be any easier to get into, but it might be a better fit and provide you a better education in your field. There’s also plenty of other schools that might be better fits for you than Harvard. There may even be others that are better fits than MIT. I hope you give this process the time and depth of thought that it deserves.
