Harvard is among the most selective universities in the USA, as evidenced by the fact, the acceptance rate of its medical school stands at 3.2%.

This suggests, the institute is only to known to accept about 3 applications for every 100 it receives, showing a big preference to students with oustanding academic records & ones who demonstrate their capabilities outside the classroom as well.

In comparison, Yale Medical School on the other hand, has an acceptance rate of 5.5%, which is slightly better than Harvard's & gives a better chance of admission to students.
