bad hs/good college/transfer chances

<p>I had a 2.0 in high school for some certain reasons, which I have a good explanation for. At community college I have approximately a 3.7 in 70 semester hours where I have taken Calc I and II, Physics w/lab, Chemistry w/lab, Elementary German I and II, Intermediate German I and II, and nearly all of the general education requirements…I attend the University of Miami where I pulled a 3.3 with 15 semester hours for the one semester I was there. However, I had to leave due to something personal and the dean as well as the president said they are going to be writing me outstanding letters of recommendations to whatever school I wish to attend. I also have superior extracurricular activities, leadership positions held, president of clubs, and other significant letters of recommendations from professors and such. Do you think they will be willing to overlook my poor high school performance, and do you think I have a good shot for admission assuming I have good essays, etc? I have never had less than a “B” in college.</p>

<p>Will hopkins even take that many semester hours for transfer? You also have to remember that highschool is a thing of the past and will hold little to no weight, does hopkins even ask you to show a HS transcript? Your performance at your CC looks pretty solid but they may hold that 3.3 against you since hopkins is super competitive and the majority of your course work was at CC. You have good recs and lors and ec’s in your favor so you may have a decent shot. Having no c’s is a plus but remember, you will be competing against ppl with 4.0s. Good luck!!</p>

<p>yes hopkins ask for high school transcripts…they will accept up to a certain number of credits, so whatever classes dont transfer then i cant use…thanks for the reply..anyone else?</p>
