<p>Hey guys! Like everyone else, I'm back for winter vacation and looking to transfer. I'm at an (almost strictly) engineering school right now and I've realized that it's really not the thing for me. I'd really appreciate it if you could give me your advice and opinion about my chances. Thanks!</p>

<p>Mudd? I'm guessing that it's a good school considering your high school stats, but it's important to have an idea of your school's ranking or something like that. You should be ok at G-Town and UMich. Applying to Wharton so I guess a business major? Cornell AEM (business program) is in CALS, high acceptance rate for the school, but AEM is impacted so I dunno. You're definitely competitive though. Wharton is possible but not very likely since they only take 6% of applicants or so. But you're definitely not throwing money at them or anything. Good luck.</p>

<p>The school the OP is at isn't Mudd.</p>

5

<p>Nope, not Mudd. I'm at Rensselaer. What? Did one of my activities give it away?</p>

6

<p>Well with the Robert. C Byrd distinction perhaps you could join the KKK.</p>

<p>lmao at the previous post</p>

<p>and i happen to think you have a great shot at all schools, you're even in the running at wharton. i hope you're not thinking of aem at cornell..cos it sounds like you're major competition for me ;&lt;/p>

<p>biggyboy</p>

<p>You're stats look great. But does AEM really require bio? I don't remember reading that. If it's true, well, that sucks.</p>

9

<p>yeah it does..and recommends another semester of either physics or chemistry (i spoke with an adcom)</p>

10

<p>I predict acceptances for all of them except Wharton.</p>

<p>It was your courses. At Mudd we have a specific core sophomore and freshman year that everyone has to take.</p>
