HOOK: Dad is an Ambassador
Anti Hook- income 200k+</p>
<p>After a recent topic I posted here, I would say that an anti-hook is your dad being paid well for his job. Nor, would I either say that your dad being an Ambassador will help you get into another college. </p>
<p>Your stats are very impressive however, but it is much harder for transfers to get into Cornell, or any other college.</p>
<p>They were pretty adamant about having that 2yr bio req filled when I was starting the transfer process. Other than that and essays I'd say you have an excellent chance.</p>
<p>stone, I have heard that as well (UofC is challenging) But, I really cant give you an honest answer b/c its the only college i have studied at...so i i have nothing else to compare it to. I think it is, somewhat. I have had teachers who literally work against the students.</p>
