<p>I am applying for transfer to:

<p>Wow! Nice SAT scores!
Well, you have one disadvantage of not having good ECs or important relavant factors like significant awards, you should have got some! Anyways, assuming you have a great essay and you apply to any science major or engineering, i bet you have good chances for all schools you list
Great work there, keep it up!
Besides, the courses you have taken are very similar to the ones i took too hahaha</p>

<p>How come you have a guaranteed transfer spot at Cornell? And how come you are not requesting fin aid from Stanford but from all the other schools?</p>

<p>You and I seem to be pretty much in the same shoes, so I hope you stand a chance in these schools...</p>
