<p>Current freshman. I'm looking to enter Penn's CAS as a junior transfer, major in government.</p>

<p>GPA (if things stay on track this semester): 3.895 </p>

<p>EC's: editor of literary review, freelance writer for student newspaper, economics club, NYPIRG internship, some volunteer work for State Assemblyman, interning for U.S. Senator this summer. </p>

<p>SAT: retaking in June and shooting, realistically I'm pretty sure, for a 2200+</p>

<p>If things go well, I'll apply for something with the Federal Resevre Bank of New York in the fall.</p>

<p>One rec I'm sure of now is my American Government prof, who's also head of the Poli Sci department.</p>

<p>I'm pretty nice at essays.</p>

<p>My h.s. record is stellar for first two years, then basically abysmal for the rest. Not sure how important that is for a junior transfer.</p>

<p>I feel like my app can be made so much better. Please critique.</p>

<p>:)</p>

<p>I like HonorsCentaur’s answer better.</p>

<p>I heard that your high school record matters less for junior transfers. Besides that I can’t help you, since I’m trying to transfer myself!</p>

<p>Best of luck. :)</p>

<p>Just do what you like. Follow your passions and it normally will work out in the end. However, if you MUST have some concrete advice, I will say to try and get your GPA up a little bit. I mean its not a huge deal but maybe go for a 3.95+.</p>
