<p>(minus Harvard - just wanted to get attention ;D )</p>
<p>I'm a rising freshman at a New York business school and I really want to get out of the area because I don't like the atmosphere and I don't like the kids. I only applied to 5 highly selective schools as a high school senior because I figured if I didn't get into those top schools I'd want to go to my school anyway. I was wrong. Kids here are unambitious and don't care about academics - all they do is party Friday nights and it's really annoying.</p>
<p>Well here are my high school stats:
Rank of 8/291
SAT 2250 (800M, 750W, 700R)
5 APs with all 5s
Full IB diploma (not tremendously good scores)</p>
<p>Hopefully I'll get a 4.0 GPA (it's not very difficult). I'm running a small internet-based startup company centered on my school, and hopefully another business as a part of a college social entrepreneurship program. I'm also in the investors' association and finance club, joining competitions and such. I'll be interning at a local UBS PWM office this winter and also taking a class - hopefully that'll work out. And I'm overloading both semesters my freshman year. I'm also a member of the orchestra and swim club. I've got no club leadership positions (those are very limited for freshmen) and people started the clubs I wanted to start before I got the chance :(</p>
<p>What are the chances of me transferring into top-notch b-schools (Wharton, NYU, Cornell, etc.) and what do I have to do to maximize them?</p>
