    One of my friend's applications was rejected by Dartmouth (ED1) and Vanderbilt (ED2) but got into Harvard.

    I always wondered how colleges evaluated people like me, who had B to B+ grades from a top private high school, but took lots of AP courses with 5s in all, and top test scores. I also had standout extracurriculars (national awards in some), but was somewhat limited because I have cerebral palsy that limits my mobility (I walk with a limp). I never applied to schools like Harvard because I thought you needed perfect grades to get seriously considered.

      Thing is, these schools have no minimum threshold for anything except some english proficiency scores.

    HARVARDS BEST KEPT SECRET: go to your local community college and do as many transferable classes to Harvard as you can in 5 years. Then go for the Harvard Extension schools bachelors & masters program! Honestly all you need is a High school or GED. Just apply to 3 Harvard classes and pass them with an A or C and you’re in! So anyone can go to Harvard now. That’s what I’m doing. 🙏

    You completely forgot or intentionally didn’t put forward the financial background of the candidate if the student is from low socioeconomic chances are very slim do video on hidden truth of financial background
