0%. You need to convince them you’re a good fit for Harvard, not that you’re a good fit at six other schools.

Three?? Yes you definitely can’t send any more.
Stats: Top Tier Consulting firm (MBB), 3.9 GPA in History, 780 GMAT, 329 GRE, 4 YOE, Parents and brother are white.
Culture is a top priority
C1: I didn’t go down any salacious route. It’s your mind :P
I only meant there can be too many causes (both boring and interesting) leading to that possibility. Hence, no point discussing as those would mostly be personal.
You’d take full price Harvard over Stanford with $$$?
In full disclosure I am going to HBS and didn’t even apply to Stanford (can’t stand the Bay Area), I was just curious
I’m starting to think this is a satirical post
The dead giveaway is that they said their parent and brother went to HBS but they are getting a 100% scholarship from GSB which only gives need-based aid. People fall for trolls so easily nowadays

start your own legacy bro

Little chance - I had GSB and Wharton last year too but HBS didn’t budge. I don’t have legacy like you do, though, even though both my recommendations came from HBS alum.
You miss 100% of the shots you don’t take. Go for it, be gracious and plead and create a narrative around “family” and how this is important to you give your father and brother went there too.
You are funny, OP
Congrats by the way, that’s incredible
It feels so meaningless without the HBS acceptance. Thank you though!!
