      Tbf it really depends on what your future is. If you want to do business, you pick Wharton (UPenn), if you want to do engineering, some state schools knock the ivy league out of the park. No school is objectively “better” than others, they each have their strong suits, but I’d say Harvard is Harvard because it does pretty damn well in almost every branch.

    So, Harvard is not requiring SAT/ACT scores. My question is: where is admissions officers' attention going to in place of those scores? Where they would normally look at those scores, what are they looking at instead?
    If anyone has any thoughts, I'd love to know what they are. Thanks!
    Update: I am aware that a test-optional policy does not equate to a test-*blind* policy, which would be needed to make admissions fair and equal for those who choose not to submit test scores.
    Schools like Harvard should disclaim that they still favor applicants who submit scores over those who do not.

      Transcript and GPA, Course Rigor and School Profile (A School Profile basically lists every class that is offered at that school)

    • @lissa4750
      @lissa4750 2 роки тому +20

      Recommendation letters, transcription/gpa/school profile (all of these 3 combined, plus your academic schedule rigor), extracurriculars and honors, essays. Like you said it yourself, test blind DOES NOT equal test-optional. It doesn't take much to google the difference (or even look it up in Harvard's website) and understand what it implies.

    • @colonelnoob3269
      @colonelnoob3269 2 роки тому +17

      Basically EVERYTHING else you include. Being test-optional is something one should REALLY try to take advantage of. If your scores are bussin (34+ or 1520+), by all means, submit them. That's just one more component that may help you get in. If they're subpar, leave it out. ONLY show what benefits you!
      I know many classmates that include them regardless because they think including it will always be beneficial. NOT THE CASE! If you're only sitting at like 1490, don't bother including the score unless you really have nothing else to supplement your application.
      Note: Schools have publicized that 34-36 and 1520-1600 are treated the exact same! If you already fall into this range, don't bother taking it again.
      Note 2: Many may argue that 1490 is really good and I agree. For big boy schools, however, that is usually within the lower ends of the 25-75 percentile.

    So, its been my dream to get into Harvard since I was in grade 3, it was all fun and games and I just took Harvard like an easy goal at that time, but as I grew, I understood reality, how hard it was, what I need to get into it. The past 2 years have been insane for me since I've been changing my education systems A LOT, which has been ruining my academical status, and I will change my education system ONCE MORE after grade 8. I'm really into programming, and I've been programming some games from the past few months, I'm lucky the same programming language is being taught in my school too. Also into Astronomy, I'm really curious, and obsessed with the stars, I've been learning a few stars as well, I always wonder how all of this started, is being controlled, and how it will end. I'm just really de-motivated as I've got really low percentages in the past 2 years. I'm currently trying to improve on my academics, once again, and not giving up. Just need someone to motivate me to keep going, and also need some studying tips and tricks. :)

    I don't have interest in Harvard simply because the major doesn't match my interest, and it's also overrated, not to mention it's expensive af. I could accomplish the same degree from a public school such as UC Berkeley with half the price. You're basically paying the money for the brand at that point (in this case you're paying money for the name), just like people spend thousands of dollars on buying a Jordan shoes when they can just buy a $20 shoes and accomplishes the same thing.

It's selective and has its negatives but there is a reason why it stands at the pinnacle of schools, and the fact that most graduates go on to not only achieve great things in life but to also live a happy fulfilling life should be evidence enough of its prestige.

    The more of comments I read, the less secure I feel about getting accepted. Mainly due to my school system, the Italian one. We don't have courses, you get sorted in a class at the start of your first high school year, then you'll stay there until the fifth. You don't get to choose which subject you wanna study, everyone just do the same 12 subjects. We don't get extra credit per class, plus if you do, you can only accumulate a fixed amount, based on your school grade average, that is made out of ALL the subjects. We don't have lots of extracurricular activities, plus after the pandemic almost no external certification gives you credits. we don't have honor classes, since we cannot even chose them.... I'm really worried, i seriously looking forward to study in the UK, tho my country won't recognize the A-levels as a "High School - Diploma". I'd love some tips, feel free to write what ever you want.

      if you have the freedom and your parents are flexible, you can see what connections you have, do an internship, see who you can get experience from.
      if you dont have that type of freedom, and are looking for more "at-home" things then there are several free courses you can do online and its extremely easy these days to learn a skill and become amazing at it independently. you can also start up an online business or build connections digitally.
      lots of options, you should be fine if you utilize them

      I'm pretty sure they used it correctly. Everyday, one word, is an adjective meaning "used or seen daily," or "ordinary." "The phone calls were an everyday occurrence." Every day, two words, is an adverb phrase meaning "daily" or "every weekday." "They go to the coffee shop every day." In the description, they used "Every day" as an adverb, which is correct.

      @@Matthafford lmao this is horrible advice. I know a kid who acted like a “model” citizen at all of his ivy league interviews, got rejected from every single one with the exception of Dartmouth. Now, this kid had great ECs, he volunteered (over 800 hours) at shelters, took trips to Colombia to help kids in need, did a bunch of stem programs, won awards in math and science.
      But he didn’t care about these subjects, he just did them to get into “hahvahrd.” And when you have no love for something you can’t show your interest, which is why he was rejected.
      Harvard isn’t looking for well-rounded people, they are looking for a well-rounded CLASS. People who will excel in life. Which is why another student from my school got into Harvard for RD this year, at it’s lowest admit rate (about 3.4%), alongside UPenn (wharton), Princeton, Brown and Columbia. He was really into Business, and he talked about it, a LOT.
      That’s not to say he didn’t do anything else, but he had his own *thing* and focused on it. He was himself, told his interviewers what type of person he is and why he’d be a great fit for his schools.
      That kid got into 5/8 ivies, Duke and Northwestern.

      I would suggest you get a rec letter from a teacher who knows you best and is most related to what you plan on majoring in. For example, if you're thinking of majoring in biochemistry, getting a letter from either your biology or chemistry teacher would be helpful. It doesn't matter if they're from your old or new school. It's better to get a really good letter from a teacher who knows you really well than have a generic letter from a new teacher

    One of my dream university
    However, I'm so stupid even I can't even speak and write English very well.
