Is it wise to apply for harvard with average profile?

<p>It maybe unwise to apply to Harvard University when one has an average rating or average scores. Year after year, Harvard remains among the most selective institutions in the world with acceptance rate to the university hovering at 4.3 % . The scores of 50 percent of admitted students are above 4.17 GPA while 75 percent of the admitted students had ranked within the top 10 percent of their class. Besides, the application fee is estimated to be approximately INR 73,000. Given these stats, applicant should have excellent profile that would include standardised test scores, excellent grade point average scores and appropriate extra curricular activities so as to increase their chances of being admitted if not, average profile, one has no option but apply to less selective universities.</p>
