<p>i regret going for an engineering major in 2 years as a transfer. the stress and workload of taking all the pre-reqs and then reqs and those quarters with chem phys math (none of which is alike to you life science majors :) ) If i had spent 3 years, i would have probably not shaved a couple years off my life. </p>
<p>but thus is the life of an engineer.</p>
<p>lol that is funny doryx</p>
<p>I wish I would have had the patience to apply to Stanford. I know it may have been a long shot, but I just looked at the application requirements and I thought "forget it." I should have taken the chance! </p>
<p>But I'm going to Cal anyway so I guess it's all good in the hood.</p>
<p>you should learn to hate stanford now.</p>
<p>ehhh i'm considering going there for law</p>
<p>Sending in my high school transcripts to Georgetown....The other two schools I applied to I did not send transcripts and got accepted on only my College GPA, 4.0. Found out after the fact I did not need to send the H.S stats to Georgetown...Oh Well</p>
<p>Nothing. I wanted to go to UVA, applied there, and are now transferring.</p>
<p>But if I had to say anything, i'd say tell my parents before two weeks before I had to turn in a deposit. Oops. =O</p>
<p>Leaving a place that I loved dearly based purely on prestige. </p>
<p>Cornell is awesome though..</p>
<p>it seems like the main regret so far is not having applied to some school(s).</p>
<p>i wish i applied to berkeley's regents scholarship... well, it's too late now... but i need more $$$...</p>
<p>i wish i didn't apply to yale cuz really there was no chance there</p>
<p>i wish i had applied ot amherst where i got deferred last year and maybe added a few more schools such as uva, nyu, northwestern, duke, tufts, or something</p>
<p>but i guess washu/georgetown are better than life at emory :/ we'll see about the columbia waitlist</p>
<h1>1 regret- taking really difficult classes in my last community college semester. I was very stressed out trying to maintain the mandatory 3.0 in that last semester. If I was smart I would have taken an art history class or something to pad my gpa a little.</h1>
<p>im with you on that once ch3. this has been the worst quarter of my life hands down.</p>
<p>georgetown requires high school transcripts dont they?</p>
<p>Probably wished I had considered which classes transferred and which didn't instead of going with requirements of my old University.</p>
<p>Dear god, 10 out of my 34 credits wasted...</p>
<p>I know this is might come off kind of lame, but it really does bother me. I wish there was some way to only apply to and get into the school I wanted. I knew all along that if I got into Vandy, I would go and turn everything else down. But for the sake of safety, I applied to several other schools, got into them and then had to turn them down. As a previous kid on the waitlist during the first time around, it really bugged me knowing that I was "that kid" who took someone's spot and didn't really want to go. I know there are kids who really would've given their left leg to be in my position, particularly with UVa, so that made me sad. I hope they did let a waitlister off of the list when I turned them down.

<p>Applying to Dartmouth on my professor's insistence. Paid the application fee, researched it more, realized the school was just a horrible mismatch for me. $50 down the drain, I say.</p>
<p>i wanted to go to usc and got in, so i guess there's not too much to complain about. i will say that i regret taking dual enrollment classes in high school, though. usc takes dual grades into account when they calculate your transfer gpa, which ultimately affects your usc gpa.</p>
<p>on the one hand, my neuroscience class helped me to realize what i want to do with my life... but the petty high school teachers that taught all of the other classes f-ed up my gpa. 3.8 college, but something like 2.5 from duals. right now i have like a 3.4 by usc's records? which ****es me off, because i REALLY want that summa cum laude... but whatever. guess you win some, you lose some?</p>
<p>I wish I had applied to a few more prestigious schools, rather than assuming I wouldn't be accepted and not applying.</p>
<p>Not spending enough time on my essays and not applying months in advance of the deadline.</p>
