<p>Hello to people on this great forum. Wish I had learned about this place a bit earlier. Anyways, I would like to know a few things from people who transfered into UMBC (University of Maryland B.county).</p>
<p>I currently go to a CC in maryland with 2.72 gpa. , 32 credits fulfilled.
I have sent in my app. to UMBC back in November for 08 Spring and they wanted to see my final transcript. Because my last semester's GPA was 2.38... (I retook two courses this semester.) Now, as people may know, their registration already started and i am dying to hear from them... </p>
<p>Do you think I have a shot at BC? I have heard they consider people above 2.5 and I have seen someone with 2.8 got accepted to BC and CP (which is harder to get in)</p>
<p>How rude! Maybe he has other things on his mind or something...also, some community colleges are equal to, or sometimes harder than, some 4 year universities. </p>
<p>Another thing to keep in mind is that, sometimes community colleges have low standards for teachers. That means the teacher may not even know their own subject, and teach it badly, which leads to lower grades. </p>
<p>there are many people with around C average GPAs if you look outside of this forum paki... alot more than you can imagine. ***** happens in life and what can I do about the things in the past. No, I ain't retaking stuffs now. </p>
<p>Btw, do all the pakistanis talk smack like that? Quite a nice way to represent your *****ty homeland my friend.. ;)</p>
