I am only in Grade 11 at the moment, so I have a few years to go (thank god!) … but I am looking way ahead, because going to Harvard Law school has been my life-long dream! 
I am looking to get an OP1, which means I am in the top 2% bracket in my state (QLD). And I hope to get a scholarship (or three!) to the UQ (University of Queensland – one of the top 10 schools in Australia). I want to do both a Law degree and a Political Science Degree. I hope to eventually become a Human Rights Lawyer.
If it helps, I also participate in the Young Labour Party … as I am friends with a Federal Member of Parliament.
So, my question is, how do I get into Harvard Law after completing a dual-degree at UQ? Because, I would have learned about Australian Law, and I wouldn’t have a GPA or SAT score etc. What do I do? I would also like to get a scholarship … but I don’t know how that works either! So any help there would be very much appreciated.
Thank you to all answerer’s!

Harvard looks for all of the usual high scholastic attributes of course, but what will get you in is the ability to demonstrate that you are a standout. Talent plus the motivation to put that to the use to use the education and connections that you get at Harvard to bring credit to furthering the prestige and position to advance the position of Harvard. I have met a couple of people who have been disillusioned by Harvard once there because of the mindset. It is not for everyone just because of its’ superlative reputation.
