Hello Taysdau,

I hope you are doing well. Getting into Harvard Business School's 2+2 program is tough with a 2.9 GPA, but it's achievable. While your GPA is below average and your STEM grades raise concerns, you have strengths like relevant internship experience, a top-ranked university, and a major switch towards quantitative studies.

To improve your chances, target a significantly high GMAT score, pursue quantitative roles at top consulting firms, demonstrate leadership outside academics, and consider applying to both the 2+2 and traditional MBA programs in the future.

Best of luck!
