one college semester of As vs bad hs gpa?

<p>i would loveeee to go to barnard, but I could never get in from hs. i'm at a competitive school now, do i have a shot?</p>

<p>p.s. what kind of EC would they look for?</p>

<p>if youre applying for soph standing, your hs gpa still has a decent amount if weight on it</p>

<p>go for it anyway knowing your chances might be lower. Having sharp essays with good reasons for transferring will be what make or break you.</p>

<p>You'd have a great shot as a junior transfer if you keep the GPA up and have decent SAT scores for the school.</p>

<p>well it can't hurt to tryyy. what would be some good ecs?</p>
