<p>I applied to UVA and cornell my senior year in high school, but got rejected. I finished with a cumulative GPA of 3.8 increasing significantly every year, also got a 4.4 my senior year first semester. I have good ecs and 29 ACT/ 1980 SAT. I am planning on going to Wake Forest for a year and then trying to transfer, I am looking to major in business, what gpa would I need to transfer to either UVA of cornell aem? Because of Wake is known for tough grading would anything above a 3.5 be above average chances?
Thanks</p>
<p>looking for some advice thank you</p>
<p>SAT’s? ACT’s? Extra Currics?</p>
<p>Its up there but…
29- ACT
1980 SAT 650-math, CR 680-writing
ECs
Worked at a restaurant for 8 months during junior year
internship at financial company
varsity golf- 4 years, captain, mvp, lots of achievements-not recruited tho
service- over 100 hours at local golf camp
Tutoring elementary kids for past two years
some clubs here and there and symphonic band and cornell summer college
some other ECs- national spanish honor society
ECs are alright probably get more involved at college
what are my chances for transferring to cornell aem/ uva for business
what would I need to get at Wake?
thanks</p>
<p>My bad, I’m used to the outlined chance me rather than the paragraph chance me lol.
EC’s are excellent, not much leadership but still not shabby. I’d highly, highly suggest a SAT score of atleast 2100+ or an ACT of 32-33+</p>
<p>If you secure some good stuff at the place you’re at, ur in good hands my friend.</p>
<p>Thank you for the help. im going to wake trying to get above a 3.5. So would you recommend taking the SAT again even though I am in college? Other than slightly low SAT do you think I have a good shot?</p>
<p>Well EC’s are decent, but nothing super. I can’t say too much about the transfers department. </p>
<p>Though I hope you intend to really get it around 3.7-3.8 instead of just a 3.5</p>
<p>In your earlier post you said my ECs were excellent haha anyways i know they arent great but i expect to also get involved in college. Plus wake is know for hard grading (no grade inflation) that is why I was saying 3.5 or above I do hope to get a 3.7 tho</p>
<p>Why not just stay at wake forest? Wouldn’t it be hard to switch schools from a place you’ve lived at for a year? I mean I’m not in college so I don’t know. Whats your real motivation? Wake Forest is a pretty rigorous school, isn’t it?</p>
<p>Motivation is my heart was really set on cornell and uva I really liked them both. Wake has a good B-school and is well-respected, but there is severe grade deflation and the school is expensive. Wake is a great school and if I love I will stay, but my intentions are to transfer.</p>
<p>Oh that’s cool I was just wondering cause I don’t really know much about transfer students! You look solid to me! Maybe better tests?</p>
