<p>I am spending my 3rd semester in Harper community college in IL.
I'm planning to transfer up to following schools.
*University of Chicago
*Northwestern
*U. of Michigan
*New York U.
*U. of Penn.
*Penn state
*U. of illinois Urbana
*washington U.- st. louis
*boston University
*Boston college
*George washington
*Purdue
Honestly, my GPA is about 3.2 now, but I am doing better this semester and would get at least of 3.3-.4 at the time of applying.
One of the reasons I didn't concentrate on school that much was because I have been helping my family business for long time. My parents does not speak English and my help is essential. Well, I am trying to explain my situation in my application but I am not sure how much they will weight it.
I would like to know how much of chances I have for above schools. and where else should I consider, if needed?</p>
