<p>i just graduated HS. I will be attending Carnegie Mellon next year in the Humanities Scholars program which is a program for the top 20 students in the humanities college.</p>
<p>my goal is to make it to front office trading at a big ibank... i am afraid even if i transfer to tepper, a CMU degree will not be good enough(i have heard a lot of people say that most CMU grads go to back office)</p>
<p>my HS record is terrible.
I was top third in my class after junior year(average public HS in NJ suburb)... i got straight B's senior year.
i have normal ec's and clubs.
SAT: 740M 760V 700W
SAT II: 800Math II 780 Physics
I had some family problems which i wrote about.. so im assuming CMU looked over my grades in light of that.</p>
<p>I basically want to know where you guys think i should transfer and when. Transferring after freshman year would be tough(impossible?) with my hs record. I will hopefully be in Tepper for my sophomore year at CMU so that greatly limits my options to biz school after soph year.</p>
<p>what do you guys think?</p>
<p>thanks!</p>
