Answer 1

if you put your mind to it and work hard you can good luck! :)

Answer 2

it's not only the grades.. although the grades you ahve are getting you nowhere, honey.. u need to get into a lot of clubs and extra currecular activitoes and do alot of communnity service, ebcause thta's what collges want and of course a 4.0 gpa or higher if yiu took honors and AP

Answer 3

to get into harvard, you'd have to work extra hard to get as and bs, if not all as your junior and senior year as well as now. otherwise harvard won't even look at you if you have cs and ds.

Answer 4

I think u can...as long as u try really hard and keep ur grades up for the rest of ur time in H.S then u can probably make it into a good college.....Im a Junior and lately ive been working really hard to keep my grades up becuz in my freshman n sophmore year i didnt really do too well...but hopefully my grades will be good enough to get me into a good university.....

Any way as i was saying i think there is hope for u..as long as u stay motivated and put that motivation into practice..

Answer 5

Probably not, they look at your entire academic record plus extra-curriculars. Unless you have saved an African baby from a strait in the Nigerian Delta, don't count on getting into Harvard!

You still have time though to improve your marks to get into a good school, probably not Ivy League though.

But don't get down about it, there are plenty of other great universities out there. If you do especially well in an average university, you could end up going to graduate school at Harvard...or even Oxford in England if you become a Rhodes Scholar.

Answer 6

unless you got a lot of money(mayb) but really no not havard think of somthing smaller..

Answer 7

my mom says u need to study and become a member of a tutorial group

i say u need about $500,000...

Answer 8

LOL

Answer 9

Wow. I suppose it's possbile. Work hard to get mostly A's and it could happen. You have time to improve your grades.

Answer 10

Girl! Stop the partying and get to studying. Lay-off the cell phone, shopping and dating. One thing is wanting to get good grades another is actually gettin' it done. Like my redneck kin  Larry the Cable Guy often say's "GIT-R-DONE".

Answer 11

Hun, you better hanker down and hit those books HARD if you want to even think of Harvard!!!

You might want to consider a private tutor, especially over the summer who could help you understand some things better and help you to figure out the techniques that will help you comprehend material better, focus in class, and do well on tests.

Harvard is extrememly competitive and if you want to get in you are going to have to figure out how to be academic and involve yourself in other activities along with your studies (though not too many).  Colleges, like Harvard, are looking for the well-rounded student these days so make sure you are involved in your school. Volunteering in your community is also an awesome way to go!

Work hard and you might get there, you may have to take a detour along the way (like starting at another college and then transfering) but you can always look at the first college as a stepping stone. Be Optimistic and Good Luck!
