Evaluation??

<p>Hey everyone. I'm going to be submitting transfer applications sometime soon, and was just looking for some opinions on where I stand. I know the majority of the schools I'm applying to are very selective, especially in terms of transfer admissions (Wharton, Duke, Dartmouth, UVA), but do I have any shot at these four schools. If so, how good of a shot? I'm currently at UMass Amherst by the way (financial trouble last year)</p>

<p>Stats:</p>

<p>High School;
-Highest SAT - 2200 760M 760W 680CR (combination of new and old, which I was told is acceptable)
-SAT 2s - Math Level 2 790, Spanish 640
-High School GPA - 3.9
-Hardest courseload available for all 4 years
-EC's - I actually have a question here. I participated in the sport of motocross since 5th grade, and actually qualified for the amateur national championships the summer before junior year. Without a doubt I put the most effort into this EC, practicing 4 times a week and racing every weekend from March to Novemeber, every year. Does this hold any weight, because it just doesn't seem like most schools even know about kids racing dirtbikes, nevermind viewing it as a valuable EC. Anyway, I had some others also; martial Arts, personal Investment (managed my own portfolio beginning junior year), held a job consistently since I was 14, etc. One area where I lacked was community service. But you should get the gist by now...</p>

<p>College;
-First semester GPA - 3.94 (one A-)
-7 courses - Honors Calc 2, Honors Bio of Social Issues, Honors Intro Psych, Microeconomics, Honors Indepedent Study in Microeconomics, Society and Literature, and Freshman Transitions (course for all freshman in Business School).
-ECs - One of the Founding Fathers of a new fraternity on campus. Also serve on its executive board as the treasurer (lot of work put into this one). Continued with my personal investment, actually opened a second, joint account that I co-manage with a friend at Duke. We are also currently in the process of establishing an Investment Club/Fund in which people will provide funds that we manage in the stock market (already have 5 people committed by contract). Member of the Finance society, analyst in the investment club, member of the undergraduate leadership council, and on an honor's council in the business school.</p>

<p>Second Semester courses - Honors Multivariable Calc, Honors Macroeconomics, Honors College Writing, Dean's Book (1 credit honors seminar), Modern China at Amherst College, Introduction to Ethics, Business Statistics 1</p>

<p>I think that should be it, but if there's anything else you guys would lilke to know in order to evaluate, please let me know. Thanks, any input would be really appreciated.</p>

<p>got nothing??</p>

<p>You sound like you are very involved at UMass. Maybe you should try to continue succeeding where you are, then apply for business school at Wharton/Dartmouth/Duke/UVA. </p>

<p>I think it will be difficult for you to transfer into Wharton, Dartmouth, or Duke. UVA may also be hard from out of state, but I don't know how much that matters for transfers.</p>
