<p>hey. I am a sophomore at NYU and looking to transfer. my question is basically about the number of credits vs GPA. this semester im taking 18 credits and will prob get a 3.5 (which is about my current gpa). 18 is the max number of credits they let us take and i want to know if its better to take less credits (say 16ish) and get a higher gpa (say 3.7) or stick to the heavier load? im wondering which i should do for next semester. please dont say get 3.7 with 18 credits bc its not happening.
thanks</p>
<p>16 credits is quite the load as well... adcons wont notice or care about the 2 credit diff... but there is a huge diff between a 3.7 and a 3.5.... take 16 credits and do well..that is the much better option...number 1 in transfer admissions is gpa</p>
<p>I second that.</p>
