<p>I was interested in applying to Harvard. I know that it is not an easy task but i would still like to take a swing at it.</p>
<p>So, I am an American citizen, studying abroad(China) with IELTS scores planning on taking the SAT and ACT. What would else would I need to improve my chances?</p>
<p>So, are we supposed to guess your grades, rank, scores, ECs, rigor of schedule, etc?</p>
<p>Sorry about that, I was waiting for some scores to come out. </p>
<p>I have an 8.5 out of 9 on my IELTS, and my GPA for my second year and first semester of my junior year are both 4.0</p>
<p>I am studying in this college prep program so some things are a bit different I guess. I havent taken the SAT yet but plan on doing so this summer</p>
<p>Hope this clears up the picture a little</p>
