<p>I have been living all my life out of US.
Atm, im in Korea, at a prestigious university.
since im going 2 da US soon, im thinking of transferring to UVA.
im not quite sure wat my chances are though.
My GPA is around 3.66. However, its out of 4.3, i dunt no whether US uses a scale of 4.0 or 4.3.</p>

<p>My sat score is around 1900...ish. i onli had a few weeks 2 prepare for SAT. trust me on dat.
I hav a very strong recommendation and a very good highskool record. i cannot explain it, but i was top 10% and my extra-curriculum list is quite impressive.
wat are my chances? can ne1 tell me?
and if my chances seem slim... is there ne other universities sum1 can advise me to?</p>

<p>thanks ^^</p>

<p>I don't know, what do you want to major in? And stop typing like that. You're at a computer, not a cell phone.</p>

<p>I am thinking of majoring in economics or commerce. Towards the finance area, so I was thinking of UVA's McIntire School of Commerce.</p>

<p>However, I am only a freshman at the moment, so I'll apply to transfer as a sophomore, into the Arts and Science.</p>

<p>^ Why did you change your typing because someone told you to? You can't be a pushover like that. It's really none of blue's business how you type.</p>

<p>3.66 out of 4.3 is equivalent to 3.41 out of 4.0</p>

<p>McIntire is competitive....your chances are good... GO FOR UVA!</p>

<p>ooppsss sorry....
I think the universities will recalculate your GPA out of 4.0 simply...they will count your A+ grades as a 4.0...</p>

<p>Yea, it's none of my business, but it's a serious pet peeve of mine when people type on a full sized keyboard like they are using a cell phone.</p>

<p>Regardless, good luck. UVA has great academics, though the students are insanely snobby.</p>

<p>Yeah...I can't stand it either...but still...</p>
