<p>I'm currently a freshman at NYU and I cannot stand it here. I gave it a shot thinking I'd like the independence and the city, but I soon found out it wasn't for me. There is no community at all and I feel like I've just been lost in the concrete jungle. I made a huge mistake. I'm transferring to Brown, Cornell, Dartmouth, and Penn.</p>
<p>High school: Very rigorous small private high school supposedly in the top ten high schools in the country. For whatever that is worth.
SAT: 2200
GPA: 3.6 (Apparently my fancy high school said that admissions will see my school and accommodate for its difficulty level. I don't believe a word of that claim based on my college admissions experience...
AP: Lit 5, US History 5, Biology 5, Statistics 5, Spanish 4, Chem 5
Extracurricular: Golf, jazz band, stand up comedy, tutoring.</p>
<p>At NYU CAS:
4.0 GPA and 30 credits. I am confident I can get good letters of recommendation from my professors and believe I have a convincing reason for transfer.</p>
<p>I think that's all the important stuff. Would you please chance me for these schools? Thank you!!!</p>
