Chances of future transfer?

Transfer Students
1

<p>So I'm going to be going to an okay state school next year, but feel that I wasted my opportunity in high school to get into a much better college. I will be majoring in physics and plan on transferring to a better school as a freshman (so I'll be a sophomore at the new transfer school), but more specifically to a physics type university. So with my high school stats of
{
HS Junior GPA 3.6X/4.0(UW) & 2APs
HS Senior GPA 3.85/4.0(UW) & 6APs
ACT Composite 33 (27E 33M 34R 36S)
HS ECs: Cross Country and Track all four years, NHS, ScienceNHS, Interact
(Lets just assume I get this) College Freshman GPA 4.0 Physics major with a research class (so possible publication)
College ECs: Club Cross Country, Pre-med type club, General volunteering club, clinical volunteering club
}
what would be my general chances on getting into the following universities? ( *=what I think would be pretty hard but honestly have no idea).</p>

<p>Pen State
SUNY
University of Washington
UCLA
UTexas Austin
UCSD
UoM-Ann Arbor
UCSB
*Columbia
*Chicago
*Berkeley
*Caltech
*JHU
*MIT</p>

<p>Also what could possibly boost my chances (ACT retake or something)? Thanks for any replies!</p>

<p>Also to add my college course load will be University Physics I with lab, Gen Chem I with lab, Calc III, a critical thinking class (gen ed), and a research elective course</p>

<p>So why do you want to transfer? What are your objectives after your B.S. My guess is that your current university can give you exactly the kind of physics background as any of the schools you list at the undergraduate level. You simply need to take the courses seriously and take the most challenging curriculum available. The undergraduate physics degree is basically the same, course wise, at any university.</p>
