<p>Im an international who plans to apply to top schools as a TRANSFER. Next year is my freshman year and then i'll apply for sophmore year. Im applying to the top schools (Yale, Dartmouth, Stanford and Columbia). The thing is, my HS GPa was a killer (3.0) and im retaking the SATs. Should I apply for sophmore year? I mean, theyd only get the first semester of my college grades since the deadlines are in march. Do you understand what im trying to say here? I cant stay for more than a year here, I cant stand it lol! Say i do really well in my first year/semester (3.75+) with crazy Essays (trust me) and decent ECs. would I be able to make it????</p>
<p>Thanks, in advance, for your input.</p>
