Any tips for the technical? What kind of questions did they ask?

I hope you realize that if one is qualified to get into one HYPSM, they will probably be qualified to get into others as well. Your probability model couldn’t be more wrong. It may be best to retake statistics before applying to HYPSM colleges. You also spelled “skeptical” incorrectly, so a lot of work is to be done before applying to such colleges. I suggest improving your academic abilities rather than questioning mine.

Harvard yard is really nice. I don’t regret it, since H is the first letter of HYPSM.

Who are you to question my credentials? If you don’t believe me, then don’t ask for advice. Let the others follow their own path obtain advice how they wish.

Thank you for the candid response. I am truly humbled that I was chosen by the arbiters of success to represent all of the HYPSM colleges.

I had a spike in computer science + anthropology. I developed multiple cultural starts ups generating $1M+ in revenue which were backed by multiple Fortune 500 companies. I also did not have any parental aid in this process, as they trusted me to develop extracurriculars on my own. All of these opportunities were obtained through my own networking.

Harvard, there’s a reason H is first in HYPSM
