Chance a transfer please!

<p>I'm an international student who just completed freshman year at a Top 50 LAC school.</p>

<p>I have realised that the science programs at my school are not for me. I do not feel that I will be intellectually stimulated or challenged. I wish to attend a larger university where there is more intensive research and more research opportunities available to me.</p>

<p>Chances for schools like: Cornell, Columbia, Yale, Harvard</p>

<p>Stats:
High School
GPA unweighted: 4.0, Rank: 1
SAT: 710M, 650CR, 740W should I retake?
GCSEs: 9 A<em>s and 3 As
A Levels: A</em> in Biology, Chemistry, Physics, Mathematics (similar to APs but I think more rigorous)</p>

<p>College:
GPA: 4.0
Rank: 1/650</p>

<p>ECs: Photography, Intern for environmental science department, Drama, Track and Field in high school, volunteer, working in dental office, worked in lab as lab assistant (nothing amazing, I guess)</p>

<p>Honors: I ranked nationally (top 5) for my GCSEs and A Levels, Dean's List at college, best freshman in Chemistry award at college</p>

<p>FA: I will need a lot of FA</p>

<p>Thanks, and I will chance you back (I'm not actually new to CC, I have been viewing the forums for about two years now).</p>

<p>Anyone? Please? I’ll chance back.</p>

<p>If you want to transfer to a school like Harvard, than you definitley need to retake your SAT. Schools like Harvard RARELY accept transfer applicants. If you are unhappy with the science program at your college currently than maybe you should apply to a public research university like UCLA, University of Washington, Umich, or UNC-Chapel Hill.</p>
