<p>Hey guys! I am a 2nd year community college student. I have a 3.57 gpa. Maybe a 3.66 (depending on how I did on my finals. trying to underscore) I want to transfer to UCLA, UCSD, UCI, UCD, UMich Ann Arbor, Boston College, UNC, Amherst College, University of Notre Dame, Claremont McKenna, USC, and Brandeis. I want to major in Molecular Biology. (Biological Sciences in particular)</p>
<p>I think my essays are pretty strong. I had them read by several people who had really great essays out of high school. I also had some professors of mine edit them as well. </p>
<p>I have Three recommendation letters ( 2 academic, one counselor). One of the academic ones and the counselor recs I think will be strong because these teachers know me inside out. ( did a lot of TAing for them)</p>
