<p>bethany55, I don’t believe you read the entire thread. My current GPA is higher than what was stated on the first page, reason my GPA fell is due to an IMMEDIATE death in the family (My GPA is OK now, you should consider having someone you love die and maintain a 4.0 from the previous semester). I have been involved in research on campus for a year and published a mathematical abstract (I was the founder of my research cluster and recruited various math majors across campus to join the research group). I presented my research at various research conferences on campus that is generally reserved for upper class men. By the time I transfer I would have completed over 20 hours in honor mathematics courses. If you read the thread a bit more you’d know I am no longer considering Duke since Duke only accepts Fall transfer students.</p>
