This question only applies to those who know what their talking about...

Im not even in high school and im already worried about colledge. People everywhere tell me that if I really do want to follow my dream and go to Harvard law, that I better get like straight As because they look at your grades from like 1st grade through 12th grade. I have personally always done good in school, except this one year, 8th grade.

Is it possible that if I get pretty much only As and Bs in high school that Harvard will still except?
:/
 
Trust me darling.... middle school means NOTHING. High school is what the colleges look at, especially the Ivy League universities. Just don't screw up in high school... take it from me, I regret not doing well, everyday.
 
You have to have straight A's to go to Harvard especially if you're coming from public school. You also need to take ALL the AP courses your high school offers and get A's (without the weight) in those courses. Beyond that, you need to have excellent SAT and ACT scores. You also need to excel in at least one extracurricular activity. It helps to be in student government (and not just something small like a home room rep). You also need to be in the National Honors Society and all those other groups. You need to have excellent recommendations from at least 2 teachers.

You should talk to your high school guidance counselor a few weeks before your freshman year so they can help you map out a plan.
 
You don't go straight into Law school from high school. And you do kind of need at least a 4.0 plus something that really makes you want to stand out if you want to go to Harvard for undergrad, and I would imagine they have equally high standards for their Law school if not higher.
 
Any law school will be much more concerned with your undergraduate work and LSAT scores than your performance in high school. Most law schools don't even ask for your high school transcripts let alone middle school transcripts.
 
If you're a clueless, helpless, victim of the white man's system you'll get a scholarship.
 
Kid, you have a lot of work to do before you can begin to think about Harvard!
Pay attention through out school, maintain your grades, volunteer, and become a good citizen and colleges (even the Ivy League ones) will make a path to your door.

Take a few courses in English grammar.

Colledge = college

done good = done well.

except = accept.

You need to be at the top of your class, taking AP classes, and have lots of extra curricular activities, preferably in a leadership position in those activities, head of the newspaper, captain of the soccer team, whatever it may be, if you want to get into undergraduate studies at Harvard.

Honestly? No.

If you have anything under a 3.9, don't even bother. You also need to be getting test scores in the 96th percentile and volunteering every place you can.

But people get there in other ways. You have to do your generals before you really get into your major, so a lot of people go to a less insanely expensive school for those, and if they do really well, they transfer to Harvard, or whatever school they plan on going to.

But really, it's not that those places are significantly schools. They're the same as every other school, they just make you do more work. But you'd get just as good an education going to the U of Minnesota for a fraction of the price.

Ivy League school are really just like every other school, but with more money and more socially awkward professors.
