4.0 Transfer from Duke

<p>So I got a 4.0 my first semester at Duke (with an A+ in my hardest class). Is that going to greatly help my chances at getting in to places like Wharton, Harvard, Yale, and Columbia? I obviously understand that the chances are slim regardless, but I feel like a 4.0 from a similar-caliber school will bode well with the admissions staff. Or at least I hope. If you guys have any advice on how to make myself stand out among the very similar, and very qualified, other applicants, it'd be much appreciated. Thanks all!</p>

<p>Not really. Harvard’s transfer acceptance rate was 1%.</p>

<p>So I’m still eating a 5% chance it looks like?</p>

<p>Don’t question it, just do it and see what happens </p>
